معنی
Describing something very sweet.
زمینه فرهنگی
In the South, people tend to use more sugar in their cooking compared to the North. Therefore, 'ngọt như đường' is a very high compliment for food there. Being 'ngọt' (sweet) in speech is highly valued in social harmony (hòa đồng). However, being too sweet can be seen as 'giả tạo' (fake). Sweetness is associated with the 'Earth' element and the spleen in traditional medicine, believed to provide energy and comfort. Poets often use 'ngọt' to describe the beauty of the Vietnamese language itself (Tiếng Việt ngọt như đường).
