Definition

1. Onomatopoeia (Từ tượng thanh):
   • The sound of a heavy, dull fall: "Oạch" imitates the sudden, heavy, and often wet-sounding thud made when a person or a heavy object falls flat onto the ground, especially a soft or muddy surface.

Usage Examples

• Onomatopoeia:
  • Nó ngã đánh oạch một cái. (He fell with a heavy thud.)
  • Đi đường bùn trơn, ngã oành oạch. (Walking on a slippery muddy road, falling with repeated thuds.)

Advanced Usage

• "oành oạch": This is a reduplicated form of "oạch". It emphasizes the sound of repeated, successive heavy falls.
  • Trẻ con chạy trên sàn ướt, ngã oành oạch. (The children ran on the wet floor, falling with repeated heavy thumps.)

Variants and Related Words

• Rầm (onomatopoeia): A loud crash or bang, typically for a heavier or more destructive impact than "oạch".

Synonyms
