Definition
  1. Noun:
    • The blue mold (archaic, literary): "khuôn xanh" is a poetic and archaic term referring to Heaven, the sky, or the cosmos, often personified as a divine or celestial force that shapes fate and understands human affairs. It is synonymous with "khuôn thiêng" (the sacred mold).
Usage Examples
  • Noun:
    • Khuôn xanh biết có vuông tròn mà hay. (Does the blue Heaven know if things are square or round? / Does Fate know how things will turn out?)
    • Mọi sự trên đời đều do khuôn xanh định đoạt. (All matters in life are decreed by Heaven.)
Advanced Usage
  • This term is primarily found in classical Vietnamese poetry and literature. Its usage in modern Vietnamese is extremely rare and would be considered highly literary or deliberately archaic.
  • It often carries a sense of fatalism, referring to the inscrutable will of Heaven or destiny.
Variants and Related Words
  • Khuôn thiêng (n): Sacred mold. A direct synonym with identical meaning and usage.
    • Phận mỏng cánh chuồn, khuôn thiêng đã bày. (A fate as fragile as a dragonfly's wing, the sacred mold has already set it forth.)
Synonyms
  • Trời: Heaven, sky (the common, modern term).
  • Thiên đường: Heaven (as a realm).
  • Vũ trụ: Universe, cosmos.
  • Thượng đế: God, the Almighty (more specific to a deity).
Related Idioms
  • While "khuôn xanh" itself is an idiomatic, poetic term, it is not typically part of larger, fixed idiomatic expressions. Its meaning is self-contained as a metaphor for Heaven/Fate.
