In reply to Blue. Cool. Thanks! I wonder what people from non-Western nations think of, when U.S. people call kids + younger people, names like "honey". Thanks for the guide. Sometimes I like looking at different languages. :D

In reply to TRA. In this case, it means "little one," a term a Vietnamese-speaker would use towards a young person. I found a very helpful guide to Vietnamese honorifics here.

I found an online Vietnamese-English dictionary. It translated, “be”, with the accent mak, as a Vietnamese word for: small, little, or tiny.

Maybe the clerk at the restaurant is saying that Ty looks small, in the clerk’s eyes.

On page 60, the one woman says something like, “And for you, be?”

On pg.60, the word, “be”, has an accent mark over the letter e. What does [be] mean? Please let me know, if you know. Thanks.

In reply to Azalee. I remember that too. My hs chem teacher put the cereal in a blender with water then used a magnetic wand to show us the iron. It was insane to think that metal in the tiniest of pieces just hangs out in our bodied like that.
