Hàng hóa đã được giao.

It is usually a collective noun. Vietnamese nouns normally do not change form for singular vs. plural, so hàng hóa can refer to goods in general, one shipment, or multiple items, depending on context.

If you want to be more specific, Vietnamese usually adds extra words, such as:

• một lô hàng = one shipment
• các loại hàng hóa = different kinds of goods

Đã marks the action as completed or in the past. In English, it often corresponds to something like already, did, was, or has/have, depending on context.

So here it tells you that the delivery is not just happening in general; it has already happened.

It can match either one in English, depending on context.

Vietnamese does not force the same tense distinction that English does. So this sentence can mean:

• The goods were delivered
• The goods have been delivered

In a shipping or status-update context, have been delivered is often the most natural English translation.

That is a very common question. Được has several uses in Vietnamese.

Here, được is not about ability. It is helping form a passive meaning. In this sentence, it shows that hàng hóa is receiving the action of giao.

So here:

• được giao = be delivered / be handed over

In other sentences, được can indeed mean things like can, be allowed to, or obtain/get, but not in this structure.

Yes, it is a passive-style sentence.

A simple way to see it is:

• Hàng hóa = the goods
• đã được giao = have been delivered

The focus is on the goods, not on the person or company that delivered them.

Because Vietnamese often leaves out the agent when it is:

• obvious
• unknown
• unimportant
• not the main focus

This sentence is about the status of the goods, so the deliverer is not mentioned.

If you really want to include the agent, you can add it, for example:

• Hàng hóa đã được giao bởi đơn vị vận chuyển.
  = The goods have been delivered by the carrier.

That said, long passive phrases with bởi are often less natural than simply rephrasing the sentence actively.

Yes. Giao is a broad verb. Depending on the object, it can mean:

• deliver
• hand over
• transfer
• assign

With hàng hóa, the natural meaning is deliver or hand over the goods.

So in this sentence, giao is specifically about delivery, not about assigning a task.

This is a very normal Vietnamese pattern:

• noun phrase
  • aspect marker
    • passive marker
      • main verb

So:

• Hàng hóa = the goods
• đã = completed/already
• được = passive marker
• giao = delivered

A rough structural gloss is:

• The goods + already + were + delivered

It will not always match English word-for-word, but the order is natural in Vietnamese.

Yes, but the meaning changes.

Without đã:

• Hàng hóa được giao

This is less clearly completed. It could mean something like the goods are delivered, the goods are being delivered, or the goods get delivered, depending on context.

Without được:

• Hàng hóa đã giao

You may see this in short notes, labels, or very compressed usage, but for learners it is better to keep được when you want a clear passive meaning. Hàng hóa đã được giao is clearer and more standard.

No. Đã already shows completion, so the sentence is complete without rồi.

If you add rồi:

• Hàng hóa đã được giao rồi.

it sounds a bit more conversational and can add a stronger sense of already finished.

In formal notices, the shorter version without rồi is very common.

Yes, it sounds fairly formal and businesslike. It is the kind of Vietnamese you would expect in:

• shipping updates
• order status messages
• inventory records
• customer service communication

In casual speech, people may use shorter alternatives depending on context, such as:

• Hàng đã giao rồi.
• Giao hàng rồi.

In many cases, được tends to sound neutral or sometimes slightly favorable, while bị often suggests something negative or unwanted.

So:

• được giao = was delivered / was handed over
• bị giao would not be natural here for normal delivery

You use bị more naturally for unpleasant events, such as being lost, damaged, or stolen.

The tones are:

• hàng = huyền
• hóa = sắc
• đã = ngã
• được = nặng
• giao = no tone mark, so ngang

So one useful thing to notice is that this short sentence already contains several different tones. That makes it a good sentence for pronunciation practice.
