Độ đường từ nhà tôi đến trường khá xa.

Definition

1. Noun:
   • Sugar content, sugar level: The concentration or amount of sugar present in a substance, especially in food, drinks, or biological fluids like blood. This is the most common and specific meaning.
   • Degree/Stage (archaic or specialized): In some historical or very specific technical contexts, it can mean a stage or degree, but this usage is rare and largely obsolete in modern Vietnamese.

Usage Examples

• Noun (Sugar content):
  • Máy đo này dùng để kiểm tra độ đường trong máu. (This device is used to check the sugar level in the blood.)
  • Trái cây chín có độ đường cao hơn. (Ripe fruit has a higher sugar content.)
  • Nhà máy kiểm soát chặt chẽ độ đường trong sản phẩm nước giải khát. (The factory strictly controls the sugar level in its soft drink products.)

Advanced Usage

• The word is a compound noun formed from "độ" (degree, level) and "đường" (sugar). It functions as a single, fixed term.
• In modern Vietnamese, "độ đường" is almost exclusively used in scientific, medical, nutritional, and food technology contexts to refer to sugar concentration. The archaic meaning of "stage" is virtually never used in everyday language.

Variants and Related Words

• Đường huyết (n): Blood sugar. A more specific medical term.
  • Bệnh nhân cần theo dõi đường huyết thường xuyên. (The patient needs to monitor their blood sugar regularly.)
• Hàm lượng đường (n): Sugar content. A more descriptive synonym.
  • Nhãn dinh dưỡng ghi rõ hàm lượng đường. (The nutrition label clearly states the sugar content.)
• Chỉ số đường huyết (n): Glycemic index.
• Độ ngọt (n): Sweetness level. This refers to the perceived taste, not necessarily the precise chemical sugar content.

Synonyms

• Lượng đường: Amount of sugar.
• Nồng độ đường: Sugar concentration (more technical).

Important Note

• The reference context suggesting "xem độ" (see 'độ') and the French translation "étape" (stage) point to an archaic or highly specialized meaning. For all practical purposes in contemporary Vietnamese, "độ đường" means sugar content/level. Learners should prioritize this meaning.
