Definition

1. Verb:
   • To excerpt and perform: The primary meaning of "trích diễm" is the act of selecting the most beautiful, elegant, or outstanding parts (often of poetry or literature) and then performing or reciting them. It combines the ideas of careful selection ("trích") and artistic presentation ("diễm" implying beauty and performance).

Usage Examples

• Verb:
  • Buổi tối đó, các nghệ sĩ đã trích diễm những bài thơ trữ tình nổi tiếng. (That evening, the artists excerpted and performed famous lyrical poems.)
  • Chương trình giới thiệu văn học cổ điển thường có phần trích diễm thơ. (Classical literature introduction programs often include a segment for excerpting and performing poetry.)

Advanced Usage

• The term is highly specific to literary and artistic contexts, particularly formal events, scholarly presentations, or traditional performances where the aesthetic value of the text is paramount.
• It implies a curated performance, not a full reading, focusing on highlights that best represent the beauty of the original work.

Variants and Related Words

  • Họ trích đoạn một chương trong tiểu thuyết để phân tích. (They excerpted a chapter from the novel for analysis.)

Synonyms

• To perform excerpts: To present selected pieces in a performative manner.
