dắt tay

dắt tay is a Vietnamese verb phrase for leading someone by the hand, or walking together hand in hand. It often appears in gentle everyday moments: a parent guiding a child across the street, children entering class together, or an older relative walking with a grandchild. But dắt tay is not just “hold hands.” The phrase carries a sense of movement, guidance, and often care or protection. How is it different from dắt by itself, from nắm tay, or even from the very different idiom dắt mũi? Watch the full lesson to learn the nuance clearly.
