Hành động dã man đó đã bị cả thế giới lên án.

Definition

1. Adjective:
   • Savage; Barbarous: Characterized by extreme cruelty, brutality, or a lack of civilization. It describes actions or behaviors that are violently inhumane.
   • Uncivilized: Pertaining to a primitive or undeveloped state, lacking cultural refinement (this meaning is less common in modern usage and can be considered archaic or pejorative).

Usage Examples

• Adjective:
  • Hành động của bọn tội phạm thật dã man. (The criminals' actions were truly savage.)
  • Chế độ đó đã áp dụng những biện pháp dã man để đàn áp người dân. (That regime used barbarous measures to suppress the people.)
  • Những tập tục dã man đó nay đã bị xoá bỏ. (Those uncivilized customs have now been abolished.)

Advanced Usage

• The term dã man is strong and carries a heavy moral judgment. It is often used in formal contexts like news reports, historical accounts, or legal descriptions to condemn severe acts of violence, torture, or war crimes.
• When describing historical or anthropological contexts referring to primitive societies, using uncivilized is sensitive and often replaced with more neutral terms like "pre-modern" or "pre-literate" in contemporary English.
