Language Characteristics of Quan Ho Folk Songs of Bac Ninh and Vi Dam Folk Songs of Nghe Tinh

Abstract

This article focuses on surveying and compiling over 300 pieces of data on Quan ho folk songs of Bac Ninh and Vi dam  folk songs of Nghe Tinh, sourced from surveys conducted through books, newspapers, and various online platforms. During our research, we found that there have been no studies to date on the linguistic characteristics of Quan Ho folk songs of Bac Ninh  and Vi Dam folk songs of Nghe Tinh; existing research has only explored their cultural aspects and artistic features without delving into the linguistic perspective. Our study aims to clarify linguistic features such as metaphors, forms of address, and rhetorical devices used in composing folk songs and Quan Ho, thereby contributing to a better understanding of the cultural characteristics of the local population.
