11. Summarize thenew resultsof the thesis:
The Vietnamese tonal system of generations of Vietnamese expatriates in Nakhon Phanom province is influenced by both internal and external factors, namely the simplification mechanism of the tonal system itself and the phenomenon of linguistic interference due to contact with the tonal systems of Thai, Isan, and Lao languages.Compared to the original Vietnamese tonal system, the low tone is a single, unchanging tone, while the rising, falling, and glottal stop tones have changed due to both internal and external factors, and the level and rising tones have only changed due to external factors.Thus, it can be predicted that the characteristics of Vietnamese tonal variations among generations of Vietnamese expatriates in Nakhon Phanom province will change in the future as follows: the level tone will not change in intonation but may change in pitch, meaning it will have a lower pitch than the level tone in native Vietnamese; the falling tone will not change in either pitch or intonation.The barbell tends to have only two new variations: 1) down-up like a barbell chopstick;5 (low-down-up)in Thai; 2) flat like a 5-pointed bar[22] in Isanin syllables ending in a consonantsilent modeHowever, both variants have a lower pitch than the rising tone in original Vietnamese; the rising tone tends to have only one new variant, a lower-rising tone like the falling or glottal stop tone.2(low-down) in ThaiThe falling tone tends to retain both the original and new variants (down-up, up, up-glottic stop, up-down, up-down-glottic stop), while the glottic stop phenomenon in the new variants will disappear completely or only appear in some variants; the heavy tone tends to completely lose the original variant and finally the heavy tone will retain three new variants: 1) low-down like the low or rising tone2 (low-down) in Thai; 2) low-flat like bar 5 [22]in the Isan language; 3) low/medium-flat-rising like a heavy tone at the syllable ending in a non-consonant endingsilent modeIn original Vietnamese, the glottal stop phenomenon will disappear in all variants.
12. Practical applications:Errors in pronouncing tones in other languages made by foreign language learners.
13. Further research directions: Pronunciation errors in Vietnamese tones by Thai learners of Vietnamese or pronunciation errors in Thai tones by Vietnamese learners of Thai.as a foreign language.

11. Summary of thenew sensationsof the thesis:
The Vietnamese tonalsystem of the Viet Kieu generations in Nakhon Phanom province, Thailand was affected by both internal and external factors.Specifically, It was affected by boththe simplification mechanism ofits ownSystem,and the language interference phenomenon thatlightdue to language contact withtheThai, Isan and Lao TonalSystemS.To compare with the Vietnamese tonal system,Thanh Huyenis the only tone which has no variation, while theQuestion mark, falling tone, and heavy tonetones have variation because ofboth internal and external factors.Tthe tones tHorizontal bar and sharp barhave variation because of external factors onlyTherefore, this information can be usedpredict the variation of Vietnamese tonalcharacteristics oftheViet Kieu in Nakhon Phanom province in the futurein the following ways: Horizontal bar will have no variation in intonation but itwill ahvea variation in pitch which hasaLower pitch than Ngang in original Vietnamese; Thanh Huyen there will be no variation both in intonation and pitch; timbreWilltend to still retain two new variantsoldare: 1) Down-up like a barbell5 (low-down-up) in Thai language; 2) flat like tone 5 [22] in Isan language in the syllables ending with unvoiced plosive consonant but both of them have lower pitch than tone Sac in original Vietnamese; Qing Qing tend to still retains a new variant is low-down like Huyen Thanh or Ech Thanh2 (low-down) in Thai language; the tildeWilltendtoretain traits ofboth of original variants and new variants (down-up, up, up-glottalization, up-down, up-down-glottalization),but glottalization in the new variants will completely losetheglottalization phenomenon or it will appear in only some variants; Heavy barWilltendto completely lose original variants and finally it willresult in3 new variants: 1) Low-down like Thanh Huyen or Thanh Ech2 (low-down) in Thai language; 2) low-flat like tone 5 [22] in Isan language; 3) low/medium-flat-up like plosive consonant in the syllables ending with unvoiced plosive consonant in original Vietnamese,but will completely lose glottalization phenomenon in all of variants.[AMD-A1] [AMD-A2]
12. Practical applicability (if any): An error analysis in pronouncing other tones to whom studies foreign language.
13. Further research directions (if any): An error analysis in pronouncing Vietnamese tones of Thai who studies Vietnamese or in pronouncing Thai tones of Vietnamese student who studies Thai as a foreign language.

[AMD-A1]Ithink this list of 5 conclusions/predictions would be more clearly presented as a list of bullet points, rather than this long sentence with each point separated by semicolons.
[AMD-A2]It might be good to have a final conclusory sentence that summarizes and ties everything together.
