cây cầu mới đượ
/kəj˧˧ kəw˨˩ məj˦˥ ɗɯə˧˨ʔ/
VI
the new bridge ...; an incomplete Vietnamese phrase, likely missing the rest after “đượ/được”
Cây cầu mới được xây dựng gần trung tâm thành phố.
The new bridge was built near the city center.
Etymology
“Cây cầu” combines “cây,” a classifier often used for long or concrete objects, with “cầu,” meaning bridge. “Mới” means new, and “đượ” appears to be an incomplete form of “được,” often used to mark passive meaning or ability.
Memory Aid
Think of “cầu” as a bridge you “call” across a river; “mới” means new, so “cây cầu mới” is “the new bridge.”
