nói sảng
Definition
- Verb:
- To rave / to talk deliriously: To speak incoherently, irrationally, or nonsensically, typically as a result of a high fever, severe illness, mental confusion, or being in a semi-conscious state such as delirium.
- To talk nonsense / to babble: More colloquially, it can describe speaking in a wild, exaggerated, or utterly unfounded manner, often due to strong emotion or a lack of rationality.
