Bedeutung
Cleaning the floor with a broom.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Sweeping is often the first chore taught to children, symbolizing their contribution to the family. The use of 'chổi chít' is very common due to the abundance of the grass in the northern mountains. In the Mekong Delta, people often sweep their porches and the dirt paths leading to their homes as a sign of hospitality. Even abroad, many Vietnamese families keep a traditional straw broom for 'quét nhà' as a nostalgic link to their heritage.
The Order Matters
Always 'quét nhà' before you 'lau nhà'. If you mop first, you'll just make mud!
Tet Taboo
Never sweep on the first day of the Lunar New Year if you are visiting a Vietnamese home. It's considered very rude and unlucky.

The Broom Corner
In many Vietnamese homes, the broom is kept behind a door or in a specific corner. Asking 'Chổi ở đâu?' (Where is the broom?) is a great way to start helping out.
