意思
Siblings should support each other.
文化背景
In Vietnam, the 'Chị' (older sister) often takes on a maternal role. This proverb reinforces that the debt of care is reciprocal. The concept of 'Filial Piety' extends to siblings. Harmony in the home is seen as the basis for a successful life. As families get smaller (1-2 children), this proverb is being applied more broadly to cousins or even very close friends. For families living abroad, this proverb is a way to maintain cultural identity and ensure the children stay connected to their roots.
Use it for Brothers too!
Don't be afraid to use this even if you only have brothers. It's a general proverb for all siblings.
Kinship is Key
Vietnamese culture is built on these kinship terms. Using this proverb shows you understand the 'soul' of the language.
