Definition
  1. Onomatopoeia (Từ tượng thanh):
    • Gushing, pouring forth in a continuous, abundant, and often noisy stream: Describes the sound and manner of a liquid (like water, blood, or mud) flowing out rapidly, copiously, and with a gurgling or rushing sound.
Usage Examples
  • Onomatopoeia:
    • Máu từ vết thương chảy ra ồng ộc. (Blood gushed out from the wound.)
    • Nước từ vòi bị hỏng chảy ồng ộc xuống sàn. (Water poured/gushed out from the broken faucet onto the floor.)
    • Sau cơn mưa, nước chảy ồng ộc từ các máng xối. (After the rain, water gushed from the gutters.)
Advanced Usage
  • "ồng ộc" is primarily used in descriptive writing or vivid speech to create a sensory image of sound and sight. It emphasizes both the volume and the forceful, uncontrolled nature of the flow.
    • Bùn ồng ộc trào ra từ miệng núi lửa. (Mud gushed forth from the volcano's crater.)
Variants and Related Words
  • Òng ọc (Nh. ồng ộc): This is a direct variant with the same meaning and usage. The two forms are interchangeable.
    • Nước mắt ấy chảy òng ọc. (Her tears streamed down copiously.)
Synonyms
  • Ào ào: Rushing, roaring (often for water or wind, can imply a louder, more sweeping sound).
  • Trào ra: To well up, to surge out (focuses on the emergence rather than the sound).
  • Tuôn ra: To pour out, to stream out (focuses on the steady, abundant flow).
Notes on Meaning
  • The word "ồng ộc" is almost exclusively used to describe the flow of liquids. It carries a connotation of something flowing out in a manner that is both audible and visibly abundant, often suddenly or uncontrollably. It is not typically used for gentle or quiet flows.
