nhấp
nhấp is a Vietnamese verb built around a small, gentle contact with liquid. It can mean to dampen something slightly, like making a towel or clothes just moist, not soaked. It can also mean to take a tiny sip of a drink, often tea, coffee, or alcohol, especially when tasting or drinking slowly. The useful nuance is how the same word connects two actions: adding just a little liquid, or taking in just a little liquid. The lesson also looks at natural phrases like nhấp nháp and nhấp môi, plus contrasts with words such as thấm, ướt, and nốc. Watch the full lesson to hear how nhấp works in real Vietnamese contexts.
