I once visited Long Bien Wholesale Market in the early morning. Amidst the bustling scene of buyers and sellers, I was impressed by a truck driver confidently conversing in English with a foreign customer. Without an interpreter, he fluently discussed truck specifications, payload, and even cargo transportation methods. Observing him, I realized that having a good grasp of automotive English, especially truck-related terms, is a significant advantage in this era of globalization.
