The Vietnamese word "đẫy" is an adjective that describes someone or something as being fat or corpulent. It is often used to refer to a person who has a round, full body shape.

Basic Meaning:

• Đẫy means "fat" or "plump." It often carries a connotation of being well-fed or healthy-looking, rather than just overweight.

Usage Instructions:

• You can use "đẫy" to describe a person, animal, or even an object that is round and full. However, be cautious about using it to describe people, as it can sometimes be seen as negative or disrespectful, depending on the context.

Example:

• Cô ấy rất đẫy. (She is very plump.)
• Con mèo này đẫy đà và dễ thương. (This cat is fat and cute.)

Advanced Usage:

• "Đẫy" can also be used in more poetic or affectionate ways, especially when speaking about babies, pets, or food. For instance, you might say:
  • Em bé này thật đẫy, trông thật dễ thương. (This baby is really chubby, looking very cute.)

Word Variants:

• Đẫy đà: This phrase emphasizes the idea of being plump or rounded. It can be used in a similar way to "đẫy."
  • Example: Cô ấy có thân hình đẫy đà. (She has a plump figure.)

Different Meanings:

• While "đẫy" primarily means "fat," it can also imply abundance or fullness in certain contexts, such as when referring to fruit or food that is well-developed.
  • Example: Trái cây đẫy đà, ngọt ngào. (The fruit is plump and sweet.)

Synonyms:

• Mập: Another common word for fat, which is more neutral and can be used in everyday conversation.
• Béo: This is also used to mean fat but can sometimes have a more negative connotation.
