意思
Feeling a high sense of pleasure.
文化背景
The phrase 'Phê chữ ê kéo dài' became a massive viral meme on TikTok and Facebook, showing how Gen Z loves to play with phonetics. In Hanoi, 'phê' is often used while sitting on low stools (ghế đậu) drinking lemon tea (trà chanh). It's part of the 'chém gió' (gossiping) lexicon. The 'Vinahouse' genre is often associated with the term 'phê nhạc.' It describes the trance-like state fans enter during high-energy beats. The brand 'Phê La' uses the word in its name to suggest that their specialty tea/coffee provides a superior sensory experience.

The 'ê' stretch
