The Vietnamese word "tam giác" is a noun that means "triangle" in English. It is a geometric shape that has three sides and three angles. You can also use "tam giác" as an adjective to describe something that has the shape of a triangle, in which case you would say "hình tam giác," meaning "triangular shape."
In more advanced contexts, "tam giác" can also refer to concepts like "tam giác tình yêu" (love triangle), which describes a romantic relationship involving three people.
While "tam giác" primarily refers to the geometric shape, it can also be used metaphorically in various contexts, such as in relationships (as mentioned above) or in strategic discussions.
