• Kiểm tra bài cũ (v): To test/check the old lesson. This is a more formal or general term for assessing previous material, which may include written tests, not just oral questioning.
• Đố bài (v): A less common, more colloquial synonym meaning to quiz someone on a lesson.

Notes on Meaning

This term is specifically used in an educational context. It describes a standard classroom procedure where the teacher orally assesses students' preparation and recall. It does not refer to a student asking a question about a lesson (which would be "hỏi về bài học"). The focus is on the teacher's action of conducting an oral review or check.
