Definition

Adverb: - Flat, plump, directly (on a surface): Describes the action of sitting or lying down directly on the ground or floor without any mat, cushion, or other padding underneath. It emphasizes contact with the surface. - Vulgarly, stupidly (obsolete/rare usage): An older, vulgar meaning referring to someone being beastly or stupid. (Note: This sense is now very rare and may be considered obsolete.)

Related Phrases (Phrasal Verbs)

(As "bệt" is primarily an adverb, it does not form phrasal verbs. Its combinations are fixed adverbial phrases like "ngồi bệt", "nằm bệt".)
