| Possessives: In Vietnamese grammar, Possessives are expressed by a prepositional phrase consisting of preposition của “of” plus a possessor. The possessor can be a personal pronoun, a kinship term, a proper name, or a full NP.
To avoid confusion, we usually left out or keep the first preposition “của” when there are two possessive phrases in the same NP as in Nó là cháu của mẹ tôi. In spoken Vietnamese, to make a smooth speech we often skip the preposition “của” as in mẹ tôi, thế giới động vật….. In Vietnamese, if there is co-occurrence between a PossP and an AP or PP in a noun phrase, the PossP always follows the AP or PP. for example Những con mèo đen [của tôi] Art- CL- N- AP – PossP Những cuốn sách [trong phòng trưng bày] [của thư viện] Art- CL -N- PP - PossP In case, there is both a PossP and a RC, both Poss-RC and RC-PossP orders are acceptable but the first is more common. For example Cây bút của bạn mà tôi đang viết rất tốt Cây bút mà tôi đang viết của bạn rất tốt. As you see in the two above sentences, they have the same meaning. However, the first is more commonly used. Besides, a demonstrative and a PossP also may co-occur in Vietnamese NP. As happening to RC, both Poss- Dem and Dem –Poss orders are available. Tôi sẽ cho bạn xem những cuốn sách[ này] [của tôi] Tôi sẽ cho bạn xem những cuốn sách [của tôi] [này]
In short, the word order of the Vietnamese noun phrase is as follows: the head noun can be pre-modified by quantifiers, articles, numerals, the particle CÁI, and classifiers in that order, and post-modified by noun adjuncts, adjective phrases, preposition phrases, demonstratives, relative clauses, and possessive phrases.
