I have no idea what any of the sandwiches I got were, because I can't read Vietnamese and just went with what my Vietnamese friends suggested (plus we were always drunk when we got them, lol, so I never asked questions).
No not really. MIL speaks mostly just viet and that's pretty much how you pronounce it. But I guess you could say the "U" is a bit more stretched out, but it's def not two syllables.
