10. Summary of the thesis results: The phenomenon of class change is considered one of the universal phenomena of language. It can be said that this concept originates from F.de Saussure's theory of the two-sided nature of language signals. Class change is one of the most effective ways to create new words in Vietnamese as well as English, demonstrating an important characteristic of language: economy.
This article presents the characteristics and types of adjective-to-noun conversion in English and Vietnamese. Through a survey of 130 statements in 10 speeches by former President Donald Trump, we found that:
When using the conversion of adjectives into nouns, the user aims to affirm the existence of a certain characteristic, making that characteristic more visible, more convincing, and creating a formal tone for the written sentence.
When English nouns are translated into Vietnamese in statements, there is no change in word class, but in Vietnamese nouns, there is a change in word class from adjective to noun. The root word is an adjective combined with an additional change in word class such as "su, niem, dieu, moi, cai, long, viec, nen".
11. Practical applicability: clarifying the concepts of word class change, showing the similarities and differences between word structure methods in Vietnamese and English will contribute to the teaching and learning of Vietnamese and English as a foreign language.
