Notes on Usage

• Word Origin: "Nội hạch" is a Sino-Vietnamese compound: "nội" (内 - inner, internal) + "hạch" (核 - nucleus, core). It is a direct calque of the international scientific term "intranuclear."
• Context: It is a technical term. It is not used in everyday conversation and has no common idiomatic expressions or phrasal verbs associated with it.
