10. Summary of thesis results:
In addition to the introduction and conclusion, the main content of the thesis is presented in 4 chapters:
Chapter 1. Theoretical basis: presents an overview of theoretical issues related to the topic. Discusses basic concepts: the concept of predicate, the typology of situation, the distinction between dynamic and static, and the transformation from static to dynamic of Vietnamese predicates. On the basis of establishing a theoretical framework for the scope of the topic, we will also present our own viewpoints and the direction that the thesis will follow during the research process.
Chapter 2. The transformation from static to dynamic of Vietnamese verbs in structures with directional elements
Based on the Vietnamese verb classification system and general issues of directional verb groups in Vietnamese, the thesis describes the transformation of static verbs into dynamic verbs in the combination type of "static verb + directional verb", in which the transformation continues to be divided into the group of posture verbs transformed into action verbs and state verbs into process verbs.
Chapter 3. The transformation from static to dynamic of Vietnamese verbs in causative - result structures: analyzes the role of the central verb in causative - result structures and goes into cases of meaning transformation from static to dynamic of those verbs in terms of physical property transformation and state and property transformation of the object.
Chapter 4. The transformation from static to dynamic of verbs in structures with tense-modal elements: A survey of the ability to support the transformation from static to dynamic of Vietnamese verbs of adverbs indicating speed, surprise, tense-modal elements and modal elements.
11. Practical application:
Applied to the compilation of Vietnamese grammar reference books, Vietnamese teaching textbooks and compilation of Vietnamese dictionaries
12. Further research directions:
+ Survey of the transformation of expressive meaning (in general) in Vietnamese
+ Compare and contrast the transformation of Vietnamese verbs with other languages
13. Published works related to the thesis: none

11. Summary of the findings of the thesis: Besides the introduction and conclusion, the main content of the thesis is presented in 4 chapters:
Chapter 1. Theoretical Foundations: an overview of theoretical issues related to the topic. Discussion of basic concepts: predicate, typology of states of affairs, the dynamic–stative distinction and the transformation of Vietnamese predicates. Based on establishing a theoretical framework for the scope of the research, we will also present our own views and directions that thesis will follow during the research.
Chapter 2. The transformation of static predicates to dynamic predicates in the construction with the directional adverbs
Derived from the classification system of Vietnamese predicates and the common issues of Vietnamese directional adverbs, we describe the transformation from stative to dynamic of predicates in the structures with directional adverbs. The main part of this chapter describes the semantic-syntactic characteristics of transformational predicates (P) in two branches: from State (P) become Process (P), and from Position (P) become Action (P).
Chapter 3. The transformation of static predicates to dynamic predicates in the causative-resultative structures: we analyze the role of nuclear predicates in causative-resultative structures and go in turn to the cases of physical properties and the state of object transformation.
Chapter 4. The transformation of static predicates to dynamic predicates with the support of Tense, Aspect and Modal words: the adverbs of surprise and speed also belong to this group.
12. Practical applicability:
Applications in compiling reference Vietnamese grammar books, Vietnamese textbooks/course books and Vietnamese dictionaries.
13. Further research directions:
+ Research the transformation of verbs' meaning and function (in general) in Vietnamese
+ Compare this phenomenon in other languages
14. Thesis-related publications: none
