chấn
Definition
- Noun:
- The fourth trigram of the Bagua (Eight Trigrams): In ancient Vietnamese cosmology and philosophy, "chấn" is the name of the fourth trigram in the traditional eight-trigram figure. It is associated with thunder, movement, the east, and the eldest son.
Usage Examples
- Noun:
- Trong Bát Quái, quẻ Chấn tượng trưng cho sấm sét. (In the Eight Trigrams, the Chấn trigram symbolizes thunder.)

Variants and Related Words
- Chấn động (verb/noun): To shake, to vibrate; an upheaval, a shock. (Note: This is a compound word where "chấn" is a component meaning "to shake," which is a different meaning from the trigram.)
- Vụ nổ gây chấn động cả thành phố. (The explosion shook the entire city.)
- Chấn hưng (verb): To revitalize, to restore to prosperity.

Important Note: The primary meaning of "chấn" as an isolated word in modern Vietnamese is the trigram. The meanings "to shake" or "to rectify" are almost exclusively found in Sino-Vietnamese compound words (like chấn động, chấn hưng, chấn chỉnh) and are not used independently as a verb in contemporary language. The verb "chấn" meaning "to trim" (e.g., horse hooves) is archaic and obsolete.

- For the meaning in compounds like "chấn động":
