The Vietnamese word "cà rốt" means "carrot" in English. It refers to a long, orange vegetable that is crunchy and often eaten raw in salads or cooked in various dishes.
You can use "cà rốt" in more complex sentences or idiomatic expressions. For example: - "Cà rốt là một loại rau củ rất tốt cho sức khỏe." (Carrots are a type of vegetable that is very good for health.) - "Cà rốt có thể chế biến thành nhiều món ăn khác nhau." (Carrots can be prepared in many different dishes.)
In a literal sense, "cà rốt" specifically refers to the vegetable. However, it might not have different meanings in idiomatic expressions in Vietnamese, unlike some other words.
While "cà rốt" is the standard term, there are no direct synonyms in Vietnamese. However, you could refer to it descriptively as: - Rau củ màu cam (orange vegetable) – though this is not commonly used.
