Questions & Answers about Băng chuyền hành lý có hành lý ký gửi.
Because the two instances do different jobs:
- băng chuyền hành lý = baggage carousel / baggage conveyor
- hành lý ký gửi = checked baggage
So the first hành lý helps name the type of băng chuyền, while the second hành lý is the actual luggage being talked about.
This kind of repetition is very normal in Vietnamese. Vietnamese often builds meanings with separate words instead of changing word forms the way English does.
Có usually means to have, but in Vietnamese it can also work like there is / there are, depending on the structure and context.
In this sentence, có gives the idea that the baggage carousel has / contains / has on it checked baggage.
So you can think of it as something like:
- has
- contains
- or, a bit more loosely, there is
Vietnamese often uses có in ways that are broader than just English have.
Ký gửi means to check in, to consign, or to send through officially.
