+### Description
+
+Spark supports Hive format in `CREATE TABLE` clause and `TRANSFORM` clause,
+to specify serde or text delimeter. In `row_format`, uses the `SERDE` clause 
to specify a custom SerDe
+for one table or processing inputs and outputs data. Otherwise, use the 
`DELIMITED` clause
+to use the native SerDe and specify the delimiter, escape character, null 
character and so on.
+
+### Syntax
+
+```sql
+row_format:    
+    SERDE serde_class [ WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (k1=v1, k2=v2, ... ) ]
+    | DELIMITED [ FIELDS TERMINATED BY fields_terminated_char [ ESCAPED BY 
escaped_char ] ] 
+        [ COLLECTION ITEMS TERMINATED BY collection_items_terminated_char ] 
+        [ MAP KEYS TERMINATED BY map_key_terminated_char ]
+        [ LINES TERMINATED BY row_terminated_char ]
+        [ NULL DEFINED AS null_char ]
+```
+
+### Parameters
+   
+* **SERDE serde_class**
+
+    Specifies a fully-qualified class name of custom SerDe for one table or 
processing inputs and outputs data.
+
+* **SERDEPROPERTIES**
+
+    A list of key-value pairs that is used to tag the SerDe definition.
+    
+* **DELIMITED**
