10. Summary of the thesis results: The thesis surveyed the semantic relationships between 270 monosyllabic Sino-Vietnamese words and 1714 disyllabic Sino-Vietnamese words whose first syllable belongs to the Bang Tổ in the Guang Yun dictionary and their corresponding words in modern Chinese, drawing the following main conclusions:

Sino-Vietnamese monosyllabic words belonging to the Bang To group have semantic correspondences with their corresponding monosyllabic words in Chinese, but also differences. These semantic differences include narrowing of meaning, broadening of meaning, and semantic changes. These changes are primarily influenced by cognitive and cultural characteristics, and by the phenomena of homonyms and near-synonyms in Chinese and homonyms and near-synonyms in Vietnamese.

Sino-Vietnamese words with initial syllables belonging to the Bang Tổ group comprise 1103 words, accounting for 64.4% of the surveyed words, that have semantic correspondences with their modern Chinese counterparts. 611 words, accounting for 35.6%, have no modern Chinese equivalents. These words are divided into four categories: self-created Sino-Vietnamese words, inverted Sino-Vietnamese words with homophones, Sino-Vietnamese words with correspondences in classical Chinese, and Sino-Vietnamese words containing abbreviations in Chinese phrases. Semantic correspondences include both similarities and differences. Differences include narrowing of meaning, broadening of meaning, and shifting of meaning.

11. Practical applications: It can be applied in teaching vocabulary and semantics to Chinese students learning Vietnamese and Vietnamese students learning Chinese.

12. Further research directions: Semantic correspondence between vocabulary in the Quang Van dictionary and its Vietnamese equivalents.

13. Published works related to the thesis: None.

Sino-Vietnamese monosyllable words belonging to Bang group have a semantically corresponding relationship with their corresponding monosyllable words in Chinese, but there are also differences. The difference in meanings of words includes narrowing and expanding meanings. and change meaning. These changes are mainly influenced by thinking and cultural characteristics, and influenced by the phenomenon of homophony, near-meaning in Chinese and near-meaning-homonymity in Vietnamese.

The Sino-Vietnamese disyllable word belonging to Bang group has 1103 words, accounting for 64.4% of the surveyed words that have semantic correspondence relationship with their corresponding words in modern Chinese, 611 words, accounting for 35.6% There is no corresponding word in modern Chinese. These words are divided into 4 types: self-created Sino-Vietnamese words, Sino-Vietnamese words with reversed cofactors, Sino-Vietnamese words with corresponding Sino-Vietnamese words in ancient Chinese, Sino-Vietnamese words with abbreviated elements in Chinese phrases. The semantic correspondence relationship includes both similarities and differences. Differences include narrowing of meaning, broadening of meaning, and moving of meaning.

12. Further research directions, if any: The semantic comparison of the corresponding Sino-Vietnamese words in Guangyun and modern Chinese
