معنی
Discarding old things for new ones.
زمینه فرهنگی
The proverb is often used to teach children the value of 'Tình nghĩa' (gratitude and loyalty). It is a core part of moral education in schools. In traditional weddings, the groom is often reminded not to be 'có mới nới cũ' with his parents after getting a wife. With the rise of smartphone culture in Vietnam, this phrase is now frequently used in tech reviews and social media comments to mock 'fanboys'. Classic poets like Nguyễn Du often used themes of loyalty to criticize the 'có mới nới cũ' nature of the feudal society.
Use with caution
Calling someone 'có mới nới cũ' is a direct insult to their character. Use it carefully!
The 'Nới' factor
Remember that 'nới' is the key. It's not just about having something new, it's about the *neglect* of the old.
