The Vietnamese phrase "ghét mặt" translates to "cut dead" in English, and it is used to express a strong dislike or aversion towards someone, often to the point of ignoring or completely avoiding them. This phrase is commonly used in social contexts when someone feels betrayed or hurt by another person, particularly in relationships.

Usage Instructions:

• Context: Use "ghét mặt" when you want to express strong negative feelings toward someone, especially after a conflict or betrayal.
• Structure: You can use it in sentences like "Tôi ghét mặt anh ấy" (I cut dead him) to indicate that you are ignoring or avoiding someone because you dislike them.

Example:

• Basic Usage: "Tôi ghét mặt người bạn đã phản bội tôi." (I cut dead the friend who betrayed me.)

• Mặt: This literally means "face," but in this context, it refers to the person’s presence or persona.
