The survey released yesterday had surprising results
Etymology
This Vietnamese phrase combines 'cuộc' (a classifier for events/studies), 'khảo sát' (from French 'enquête' via scholarly borrowing meaning research/investigation), and 'được' (passive marker indicating the action is done to the subject).
Memory Aid
Break it down: 'cuộc' = event classifier, 'khảo sát' sounds like 'survey' when spoken quickly, 'được' = passive marker like 'was [done]' to link the survey to being carried out.
