Bedeutung
Being so happy that one cries.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Vietnamese culture, 'mừng' is often a collective emotion. You don't just 'mừng' for yourself; you 'mừng' for your family's honor or your country's success. The phrase is most frequently associated with the 'Mother' figure in Vietnamese media, symbolizing her sacrifice and ultimate joy in her children's success. On Vietnamese social media, people use the 'loudly crying' emoji 😭 alongside this phrase to show they are moved, not sad. Classic Vietnamese literature uses this phrase to signal the resolution of a long, painful conflict (the 'Happy Ending').
Use with 'muốn'
You can say 'Mừng muốn rơi nước mắt' to mean 'So happy I almost cried' if you didn't actually cry.
Not for small things
Don't use it for getting a free topping on your milk tea. It sounds weirdly dramatic.
