City of Nedlands
The City of Nedlands is a local government area in the inner western suburbs of the Western Australian capital city of Perth, about 7 kilometres (4 mi) west of Perth's central business district. The City covers an area of 20.0 square kilometres (7.7 sq mi), maintains 137 km of roads and a little over 380 hectares of parks and gardens, and has a population of over 21,000 as of 2016.
City of Nedlands History
The City of Nedlands had its origins in the Claremont Road District, which was created in 1893 after a petition from ratepayers who lived in the areas of Nedlands and Claremont, which had grown substantially in population at the end of the 19th century. Seven men were nominated to the new Board, which became the first local government authority for the Nedlands/Claremont area. In 1898, Claremont itself split away to form a municipal government, which still exists today as the Town of Claremont.
In 1932, the Claremont Road Board was renamed Nedlands, and on 1 July 1959, it became a city. The City was made up of four wards – Melvista, Hollywood, Dalkeith and Coastal. These wards continue to the present day.
"On 1 July, 1959 the City of Nedlands was proclaimed at the command of Governor Sir Charles Gairdner, in the packed Dalkeith Civic Hall. Mr Allan Jenkins read out the proclamation and the Minister for Local Government, Mr Leslie Logan, M.L.C. conducted the official swearing in ceremony of the new Mayor, John Charles Smith, the twelve new Councillors and the auditors. He then appointed Mr Allan Jenkins as the City's first Town Clerk. Among those present was MLA for Nedlands, Deputy Premier Charles Court." - From the City of Nedlands Council Website https://www.nedlands.wa.gov.au/history.

Vietnamese is the national and official language of Vietnam. It is the mother tongue of 86% of Vietnam's population, and of about three million overseas Vietnamese.
Like many languages from Asia the Vietnamese language is a tonal language. Today, it uses a Latin alphabet based on the French alphabet. The Vietnamese alphabet was once based on Chinese characters. It is called Chữ Nôm. Fewer people know Chữ Nôm today.
Vietnamese was identified more than 150 years ago as part of the Mon–Khmer branch of the Austroasiatic language family (a family that also includes Khmer, spoken in Cambodia, as well as various tribal and regional languages, such as the Munda and Khasi languages spoken in eastern India, and others in southern China). Later, Muong was found to be more closely related to Vietnamese than other Mon–Khmer languages, and a Viet–Muong subgrouping was established, also including Thavung, Chut, Cuoi, etc. The term "Vietic" was proposed by Hayes (1992), who proposed to redefine Viet–Muong as referring to a subbranch of Vietic containing only Vietnamese and Muong. The term "Vietic" is used, among others, by Gérard Diffloth, with a slightly different proposal on subclassification, within which the term "Viet–Muong" refers to a lower subgrouping (within an eastern Vietic branch) consisting of Vietnamese dialects, Muong dialects, and Nguồn (of Quảng Bình Province).
Vietnamese is increasingly being taught in schools and institutions outside of Vietnam. In countries with strongly established Vietnamese-speaking communities such as Australia, Canada, France, and the United States, Vietnamese language education largely serves as a cultural role to link descendants of Vietnamese immigrants to their ancestral culture. Meanwhile, in countries near Vietnam such as Cambodia, Laos, South Korea, and Thailand, the increased role of Vietnamese in foreign language education is largely due to the growth and influence of Vietnam's economy.

Vietnamese Document Translation
Vietnamese has three major dialect regions — Northern (Hanoi), Central (Hue), and Southern (Ho Chi Minh City) — that differ significantly in pronunciation and somewhat in vocabulary. While written Vietnamese is largely standardised, documents from different regions may use variant terms for the same administrative concepts. Pre-1975 documents from the former Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam) follow different formatting conventions and may use older terminology.
Vietnamese Document Types
A birth certificate is a giấy khai sinh, a marriage certificate is a giấy chứng nhận kết hôn, and a death certificate is a giấy chứng tử. Academic transcripts are titled bảng điểm and degree certificates as bằng tốt nghiệp.
Where Vietnamese Is Official
Vietnamese is the official language of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the sole language of government, law, education, and media. It is spoken by approximately 85 million people in Vietnam and by significant diaspora communities worldwide, with Australia hosting one of the largest Vietnamese-born populations outside of Vietnam. Vietnamese has no official status in international organisations but is offered as a community language in Australian schools and universities.
Vietnamese is written in a Latin-based script called chữ Quốc ngữ, which incorporates extensive diacritical marks indicating both vowel quality and one of six lexical tones. A single base vowel like "a" can appear as á, à, ả, ạ, ã, ă, or â — and each represents a different sound, making exact diacritic reproduction essential.
About City of Nedlands
The City of Nedlands covers approximately 20 square kilometres on the northern bank of the Swan River, west of Perth CBD. With a population of around 23,000, it is one of Perth's most established and affluent residential areas, shaped significantly by the presence of the University of Western Australia and several major hospital campuses.
The LGA includes Nedlands, Dalkeith, Mount Claremont, Karrakatta, Shenton Park, and Floreat Park, with Hampden Road and Broadway serving as the main local commercial strips.
Council offices are on Stirling Highway in Nedlands, with the Nedlands Library located nearby. The area houses several state-level institutions including QEII Medical Centre, Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, and Hollywood Private Hospital.
Stirling Highway is the primary east-west corridor connecting to both Perth CBD and Fremantle. The Loch Street and Shenton Park stations are on the Fremantle line, and multiple bus routes operate along Stirling Highway and through the UWA campus.
