Chinese characters are materials of Chinese poems in Vietnam, including three main factors: configuration, sound, and meaning. Among those factors, generally configuration and meaning were borrowed from the Chinese while the Sino-Vietnamese sound has been developed since the linguistic acculturation of Vietnamese to Chinese language. Chinese configuration with cultural insides shown in non-numerical configuration has contributed hidden values to the works. Ideograph characteristic of this writing system generates emblems with deep cultural dimension. Analyzing Chinese character configuration is to get more understanding on the meaning of the word and to understand different hidden meanings of the word. The expressions shown on character configuration become a tightly connected system, increasing expressional value for the work and creating artistic messages. Sino-Vietnamese sound of the Chinese works in Vietnam still preserves the characteristics of similarity, prosody, and rules of ancient poetry. Comparing Sino-Vietnamese sound and Vernacular Chinese sound, we will see that, in many cases, Sino-Vietnamese sound (related to audio-track) preserves the characteristics of similarity, prosody, and rules of ancient poetry but the Vernacular Chinese sound may not. Rules on tone bring up beautiful poetry feelings of an era with distinct features. In understanding the meaning of non-numerical scripts, we care about the synonyms with slightly different meanings, which create specific values for poetry works. Chinese words with the same radical can be connected as far as their meanings go, transferring values that readers can discover based on those connections. Multiple meaning words directly contribute to the multi layers of the different layer of meaning in literature works. In general, readers need to be aware of configuration, sound, and meaning of Chinese characters in order to understand the values of Chinese poems in Vietnam.
