Adjective

IPA: [hwaː˧˧] [Hà-Nội], [hwaː˧˧] [Huế], [waː˧˧] (note: Saigon) Audio: LL-Q9199 (vie)-Penn Zero MSSJ-hoa.wav
Etymology: Sino-Vietnamese word from 花. The "capital" sense probably comes from the flourishes of the cursive capital letters that are commonly taught in elementary schools; even cursive lower-case letters don't have as many flourishes, which explains the distinction. The form ba is attested in some Central dialects, most notably from the placename Đông Ba.
