معنی
Describing someone very humble and kind.
زمینه فرهنگی
The earth is seen as a mother figure. This idiom reflects the deep respect for the land that provides food and life without asking for anything in return. The concept of 'Hiền' is linked to the Buddhist ideal of 'Từ bi' (Compassion). Being gentle is a way to accumulate good karma. In Vietnamese families, the 'hiền' quality is often expected of women and elders, representing the 'soft' power that keeps the family together. While used everywhere, the phrase often evokes a sense of rural simplicity and honesty (chất phác), contrasting with the perceived 'sharpness' of city life.
The Ultimate Compliment
If you want to make a Vietnamese person feel truly respected for their character, use this phrase. It's better than just saying 'tốt' (good).
Tone Matters
Say it with a smile. If said with a flat or annoyed tone, it could sound like you're calling someone boring (though this is rare).
