The Vietnamese word "chuệch choạc" is an adjective that describes something that is crooked, unsteady, or not straight. It can refer to physical objects, such as a line that is not straight, or it can describe a person's actions or behavior, indicating that they are awkward or clumsy.
In more advanced contexts, "chuệch choạc" can be used to suggest a lack of coordination or a failure to follow a correct path, whether in actions or decisions. For example, one might say: - "Kế hoạch của họ chuệch choạc từ đầu." (Their plan was flawed from the beginning.)
While "chuệch choạc" is commonly used on its own, you may encounter it in expressions or phrases: - "Đi chuệch choạc" (to walk unsteadily) - "Tâm trạng chuệch choạc" (a confused state of mind)
