Definition
- Noun:
- (Historical/Obsolete) A market strike; the act of merchants or vendors collectively ceasing to trade at a market as a form of protest or demonstration. This term is considered old-fashioned and is synonymous with "bãi chợ".
Usage Examples

- Trong lịch sử, hình thức bãi thị thường được các tiểu thương sử dụng để phản đối thuế má. (Historically, the market strike was often used by small traders to protest taxes.)
Advanced Usage Notes
- The term "bãi thị" is largely obsolete in modern Vietnamese. The contemporary and more common term for a strike or work stoppage is "đình công". For a market-specific stoppage, "bãi chợ" is used, though also somewhat dated.
- It specifically refers to a collective action within a commercial marketplace setting, not a general labor strike in factories or offices.

Notes on Usage
- Register: This word belongs to a historical or formal literary register. You will encounter it in historical texts or discussions about past events.
- Context: It is crucial to understand that "bãi thị" refers specifically to a market context. Do not confuse it with modern industrial strikes ("đình công") or student protests ("biểu tình").
- Word Components: The word is a compound of "bãi" (to cease, to stop) and "thị" (market, from "chợ"). This structure is similar to "bãi công" (to strike from work) and "bãi khóa" (to boycott school).
