Perguntas frequentes
12 perguntasNo, that sounds like you are buying the morning itself. Always use 'mua đồ ăn sáng' or 'mua bữa sáng.'
Yes, it is neutral. To be extra polite, add 'ạ' at the end: 'Em đi mua đồ ăn sáng ạ.'
'Mua' is general buying; 'Đặt' specifically means ordering via phone or app.
In cities, yes, it is extremely common due to the low cost and high convenience of street food.
Just change 'sáng' to 'trưa': 'mua đồ ăn trưa.'
It can be both. Context tells you if it's one dish or many.
Then you would say 'mua đồ về làm đồ ăn sáng' (buy things to come back and make breakfast).
'Đồ ăn sáng' is more standard; 'đồ sáng' is a common casual shortcut in the South.
After saying you want to buy, ask 'Bao nhiêu tiền ạ?'
Usually, 'mua bữa sáng' or 'chi tiêu cho bữa sáng' is preferred in formal reports.
No, that is grammatically incorrect. The time 'sáng' must follow 'đồ ăn' directly.
Usually from 5:00 AM to 10:00 AM. After that, it's 'trưa' (noon/lunch).
