Bedeutung
Describing something obvious.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Vietnam, directness can sometimes be seen as rude, but using an idiom like 'rõ như ban ngày' softens the blow by appealing to a universal truth rather than a personal attack. The phrase evokes the intense light of the Vietnamese countryside where there is little shade in the fields, making everything visible for miles. While not a legal term, it is often used in 'court of public opinion' discussions on social media regarding scandals. Teachers use this to encourage students to find the 'obvious' logic in a problem.
Use for Emphasis
Use this when you want to end an argument decisively. It leaves no room for 'maybe'.
Don't over-use
If you say everything is 'clear as day', you might sound dismissive of other people's perspectives.

Body Language

Pair with 'Đã'
