Vietnamese

Etymology

Non-Sino-Vietnamese reading of Chinese 心 (SV: tâm). Doublet of tâm.

For some examples of ‹i› in vernacular loans versus ‹â› in standard Sino-Vietnamese, see also phím, kịp, kín, nhịn.

The figurative usage of the word "heart" seen in Modern Vietnamese is at least partially due to foreign influence (either Chinese 心 (MC sim) or some European languages like French cœur). Traditionally, the locations for psychological states and feelings are bụng (“belly, abdomen”), lòng (“intestines, entrails”), dạ (“stomach, the inside”).
