意思
Asking for the price of an item.
文化背景
Bargaining is expected in markets. If you don't ask 'Cái này giá bao nhiêu?' and then negotiate, you might pay 2-3 times the local price. In Hanoi, the interaction can be more formal. Using 'ạ' at the end of your question is highly recommended to show respect. Saigoners are often more direct and casual. You will frequently hear the shortened 'Nhiêu?' or 'Bao nhiêu?' without the 'giá'. The 'First Customer' (Mở hàng) rule: Sellers believe the first person to ask the price and buy sets the tone for the day's luck.
The 'Ơi' Factor
Always start with [Title] + ơi. For example, 'Chị ơi, cái này giá bao nhiêu?'. It makes you sound 10x more fluent and polite.
Don't use 'Mấy'
Never ask 'Giá mấy?'. It sounds very unnatural because Vietnamese currency involves thousands of units.

常见问题
5 个问题Yes, but adding 'ạ' at the end or 'Dạ' at the beginning makes it much more respectful for elders.
In a casual market, yes. In a shop, it might sound a bit too blunt.
'Giá' means 'price' (noun), while 'tiền' means 'money'. Both work, but 'giá' is more standard for asking cost.
Say 'Những cái này giá bao nhiêu?' (How much are these things?).
It's a regional contraction of 'bao nhiêu' that is very common in Southern dialects.
