How to Say “Discord” in Vietnamese

bất hòa
The English word "discord" can be translated into Vietnamese as bất hòa.
Meaning: app (name)

Which one should you use?

Use Xung đột to mean "Conflict", Chia rẽ to mean "Division" and Sự chống đối to mean "Opposition". Bất hoà means "Dissension".

Did you know?

  • While bất hòa describes a state of disharmony, Vietnamese speakers often use the term mất lòng to describe the specific feeling of having offended someone or losing their favor.
  • When describing a 'discordant' sound in music, Vietnamese uses phô instead of bất hòa, as the latter is reserved almost exclusively for human relationships.
  • In Vietnamese, the concept of 'harmony' hòa is central to social ethics, and bất hòa is often viewed not just as a disagreement but as a failure of social balance.

Examples in context

  • Sự rạn nứt quan hệ giữa hai bên đã trở nên rõ ràng.
    The discord between the two sides has become evident.
  • Tôi không muốn rạn nứt tình cảm với bạn ra thêm nữa.
    I don't want any more discord in our relationship.
  • Các cuộc biểu tình gần đây đã tạo ra sự chia rẽ trong xã hội.
    Recent protests have created division in society.
