trên có

/tɕɛn˧˦ kɔ˧˦/

literally "above has"; commonly means "what's above", a phrase used to refer to content located further up a page or text, or to ask about something located above

Bạn đọc lại đoạn trên có nói gì về địa điểm không?

Can you re-read the paragraph above, does it say anything about the location?

Etymology

It is a combination of two native Vietnamese words: "trên" (originated from Proto-Vietic *tər-linʔ, meaning "above") and "có" (originated from Proto-Vietic *ʔklaːʔ, meaning "to have"). It developed as a common colloquial phrase in modern Vietnamese.

Memory Aid

Remember that "trên" means above and "có" means has, so literally "above has" = there is something above that you are referring to.
