意思
Cleaning the floor of a house.
文化背景
Mopping is a daily ritual because people often sit on the floor to eat or socialize. A clean floor is a sign of hospitality. Cleaning and mopping the house before Tet is mandatory to welcome the New Year. However, mopping on the first day of Tet is often avoided as it might 'wipe away' good luck. In modern apartments, 'lau nhà' is often done by robot vacuums, but the phrase remains the same even when a machine does it. In older houses with cement floors, people might 'rửa nhà' (hose it down) instead of just 'lau nhà' to get rid of mud.
The Sequence
Always mention 'quét nhà' before 'lau nhà' to sound like a native speaker who knows their chores.
Wet Floors
If you say 'mới lau nhà xong', people will automatically stop walking to avoid slipping.
