Definitions

1. Verb (Intransitive):
   • To be affected by dysentery; to have dysentery. This is a medical term describing a condition characterized by severe diarrhea, often with blood and mucus in the stool, typically caused by infection.

Usage Examples

• Verb:
  • Trẻ em sống trong khu vực thiếu nước sạch dễ bị đi kiết. (Children living in areas without clean water are prone to having dysentery.)
  • Anh ấy phải nhập viện vì đi kiết nặng. (He had to be hospitalized due to a severe case of dysentery.)

Advanced Usage

• This term is specific and clinical. In everyday, non-medical conversation, people might use more general terms like "tiêu chảy nặng" (severe diarrhea) or "đau bụng đi ngoài" (stomachache with diarrhea) to describe similar symptoms without specifying the exact medical condition.

Variants and Related Words

• Bệnh kiết lỵ (n): Dysentery (the noun form for the disease itself).
  • Bệnh kiết lỵ lây lan qua đường nước và thức ăn bị ô nhiễm. (Dysentery spreads through contaminated water and food.)
• Kiết lỵ (n/adj): A common shortened form for "bệnh kiết lỵ"; can also be used adjectivally.
  • triệu chứng kiết lỵ (dysentery symptoms)

Synonyms

• Mắc bệnh lỵ: To contract dysentery (a more formal synonym).
• Bị lỵ: To have dysentery (a common shortened form).

Notes on Meaning

• The term "đi kiết" is very specific and refers explicitly to dysentery, which is a distinct medical diagnosis from general diarrhea. It should not be used interchangeably for mild stomach ailments.
