Thank you for your report!

In order to learn more about that topic, I read the following GNU help page:
https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Plural-forms.html

There Vietnamese is especially listed as a one plural form language.

I also checked a Gnome and a Debian package, as these are wide-spread open source projects, and both also use the single plural form:
https://sources.debian.org/src/grub2/2.06-2/po/vi.po/
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/blob/main/po/vi.po

I have seen your report at the unicode issue tracker ( https://unicode-org.atlassian.net/browse/CLDR-14273 ) and the pull request over at GitHub ( https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/pull/1774 ) which has not been merged yet.

As I do not speak Vietnamese, I would appreciate if some more native speakers/translators would speak up here to get some "extra confirmation" :-)

I will also reach out to some fellow engineers - maybe somebody knows someone from Vietnam.

Thanks for your patience!
