What it means
"The 'là + nhóm danh từ' (be + noun phrase) is considered as an equative clause that typically appears at the beginning of a sentence. Since it functions as a predicate, the subject of the sentence always stands in between, after 'là + nhóm danh từ,' and before the main clause."
"Là + nhóm danh từ" được coi như một mệnh đề có chức năng đồng vị ngữ thường đứng đầu câu. Vì nó có chức năng là một vị ngữ, nên chủ ngữ của câu luôn đứng giữa, nằm sau "là + nhóm danh từ" và trước mệnh đề chính.
