Definition
- Verb:
- To draft / to write down (as a formal scribe): The primary meaning of "chấp bút" is to be the person who physically writes or composes a document, text, or article based on collective ideas, discussions, or directives. It emphasizes the role of formally putting agreed-upon content into written form.

Advanced Usage
- The term often carries a formal or official connotation, used in contexts like drafting legal documents, committee resolutions, official letters, or articles representing an organization's stance.
