Usage notes
[edit]- When functioning as a full verb, có indicates possession in its broadest sense. Có can also indicate existence, which is equivalent to "there is" or "there are". In many expressions, có is simply equivalent to "to have": có kinh nghiệm ("to have experience"), có hai con ("to have two children"), có bạn gái / bạn trai ("to have a girlfriend / boyfriend"), etc. Có is also used to form idiomatic expressions; most idiomatic expressions of the "có + noun" type are equivalent to English "to be + adjective": có hiếu ("to be filial"), có tuổi ("to be old"), etc. A number of words that contain có are perceived by native speakers as whole words. Có has been somewhat bleached of its original meaning in such words as có khi (“maybe, probably”), có mặt (“to be present”), có thể (“can, to be able”), etc.
