bảo nô
Definition
- Noun (Historical)
- Patron: In the historical context of feudal Vietnam, a "bảo nô" refers to a patron, specifically a landowner or powerful figure who provided protection and livelihood to dependent peasants or servants in exchange for their labor and loyalty. This term describes a key social relationship in the patron-client system.
Usage Examples
- Noun:
- Trong xã hội phong kiến, bảo nô có quyền lực rất lớn trên mảnh đất của mình. (In feudal society, the patron held great power over his land.)
- Người nông dân ấy tìm đến một bảo nô để được che chở. (That peasant sought out a patron for protection.)
Advanced Usage
- The term is primarily used in historical or academic discussions about pre-modern Vietnamese society and its structures.
- It can be analyzed in contrast to the term "" (serf/peasant) to describe the two sides of this feudal relationship.
Variants and Related Words
- Bảo hộ (verb/noun): To protect/protection. While "bảo nô" is a specific historical term for a patron, "bảo hộ" is a general term for protection or guardianship.
- Địa chủ (noun): Landlord. This is a more general and commonly used term for a landowner, which can overlap with but is not perfectly synonymous with the historical concept of "bảo nô".
Synonyms

- Master: Emphasizes the authority and ownership aspect.
Notes on Meaning
- This word is archaic and is not used in contemporary contexts outside of historical study.
- The reference to "(arithm.) patron" from the Vietnamese-French dictionary likely points to a now-obsolete or highly specialized usage in mathematics, possibly as a translation for a template or pattern (like a stencil). The primary and standard meaning remains the historical one.
