Definition
  1. Adverb:
    • Not once; never (at any time): Used to strongly emphasize that something has never happened or is absolutely not the case. It conveys a sense of absolute negation regarding an action or state over a period of time.
Usage
  • Position in Sentence: Typically placed before the main verb in the sentence to negate it.
  • Function: Used for strong, emphatic negation. It is more literary or formal than the common "không bao giờ".

Usage Examples
  • Adverb:
    • Tôi chớ hề biết đến điều đó. (I have never known about that.)

Advanced Usage

  • Used in proverbs, formal writing, or solemn declarations to express an absolute principle or truth.
    • Làm người chớ hề tham lam. (As a person, one must never be greedy.)
