Significado
The act of bathing.
Contexto cultural
Bathing late at night (tắm đêm) is culturally discouraged due to health fears. A special bath with coriander (lá mùi) is taken on the last day of the year. In the past, bathing in rivers or ponds was a communal social activity. Most apartments now have 'bình nóng lạnh' (water heaters), making 'tắm nước nóng' common year-round.

If a Vietnamese friend tells you 'Đừng đi tắm muộn', they are showing they care about your health.
Use 'đi' for intent
Always add 'đi' before 'tắm' to sound like a native speaker when announcing your plans.
