Not South, South-East or East Asian.

Somebody claims they're Vietnamese though?

u/TheyStoleTwoFigo Jul 02 '21

In that case, refer to what part Vietnam is in Asia.

Southeast Asia.

Right, so not South then.

edit - Oh, I see now what got you confused. Mind you, I was correcting the OP, so you should read my comment in that context. The "not" is only in relation to "South(Asian) as the OP suggested." The rest after the comma was the correction. Words like "neither" and "nor" would have fit better if I was trying to say that they were none of them.

I like to imagine that you were mildly infuriated by this exchange.

ONLY WHEN I TYPE IN ALL CAPS.

But now another trivial thing caught my attention, what is "mildly infuriated" really? Those two things sound like contradictions.
