🇻🇳 Vietnamese Grammar 101: Simple Structure (SVO) and Time Markers (Đã, Đang, Sẽ) ✍️

Introduction: Why Vietnamese Grammar is Easier Than You Think 😌

If you’ve tried to learn French, Spanish, or German, you know the pain of verb conjugation. Changing verbs based on who, when, and how the action happened is exhausting!

Here’s the good news: Vietnamese has virtually NO verb conjugation! No plural forms, no gendered nouns, and no complex tenses.

Vietnamese grammar is incredibly simple and logical. This guide will walk you through the two most important rules you need to know to form basic sentences immediately: the Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) structure and simple Time Markers.

Part 1: The Core Structure – Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) 🧠

Vietnamese uses the same basic sentence structure as English, which is a massive advantage for you!

Formula: Subject (S) + Verb (V) + Object (O)

Category	English Example	Vietnamese Example	Analysis
S-V-O	I eat rice.	Tôi (I) ăn (eat) cơm (rice).	Structure is identical to English.
S-V	She sleeps.	Cô ấy (She) ngủ (sleep).	No need for a singular s or verb changes.

The Flexibility of Adjectives: Adjectives (descriptive words) generally follow the noun they modify, unlike English:

• English: A good teacher.
• Vietnamese: Một giáo viên giỏi (A teacher good).

Part 2: Expressing Time – The Simple Markers (Đã, Đang, Sẽ) 🗓️

Since verbs don’t change form, Vietnamese uses simple Time Markers placed before the main verb to indicate when the action takes place.

These are the three most common markers:

Marker (Position: Before Verb)	English Meaning	Usage	Example
Đã	Past (Already/Did)	Action that was completed (Past Tense).	Tôi đã ăn cơm. (I ate rice.)
Đang	Present Continuous (Is/Are doing)	Action that is currently happening (Present Continuous).	Tôi đang học tiếng Việt. (I am learning Vietnamese.)
Sẽ	Future (Will/Going to)	Action that will happen (Future Tense).	Tôi sẽ đi Việt Nam. (I will go to Vietnam.)

Bonus Tip: You can even omit these markers if the context is already clear (e.g., Hôm qua tôi ăn cơm. – Yesterday I ate rice.). This flexibility makes Vietnamese much easier to speak!

Part 3: Putting It Together: Simple Sentences You Can Use Today 🗣️

Let’s practice combining SVO and Time Markers:

1. Question: Anh đang làm gì? (What are you doing?)
2. Answer: Tôi đang đọc sách. (I am reading a book.)
3. Past: Hôm qua, cô ấy đã mua cà phê. (Yesterday, she bought coffee.)
4. Future: Tuần sau, chúng tôi sẽ gặp nhau. (Next week, we will meet.)

Conclusion: Grammar is No Longer Your Obstacle 💪

Vietnamese is truly a language where you can focus less on complicated rules and more on pronunciation, vocabulary, and communication. The SVO structure and the clear Time Markers make sentence formation logical and fast!

If you can master these two concepts, you have a solid foundation for every conversation.
