cánh quạt

Friendly

The Vietnamese word "cánh quạt" translates to "propeller" in English. It refers to a type of device that spins and creates thrust, often used in various machines, including airplanes and turbines.

Usage Instructions:

• Context: You will commonly see "cánh quạt" in discussions about aviation, boats, or machinery that uses propellers to move or generate power.
• Structure: The term is made up of two parts: "cánh" means "wing" or "blade," and "quạt" means "fan." Together, they describe something that has blades that rotate to create movement.

Examples:

1. In Aviation:

   • "Máy bay cánh quạt" means "propeller-driven plane."
   • Example sentence: "Máy bay cánh quạt bay rất êm." (The propeller-driven plane flies very smoothly.)

2. In Watercraft:

   • "Tàu thuyền có cánh quạt." means "Boats have propellers."
   • Example sentence: "Cánh quạt của tàu thuyền giúp nó di chuyển nhanh hơn." (The propeller of the boat helps it move faster.)

Advanced Usage:

• In more technical discussions, "cánh quạt" can refer to specific types of propellers used in different engines or turbines, such as "cánh quạt của tua bin" (propeller of a turbine).
• Example: "Cánh quạt của tua bin gió có thể tạo ra năng lượng tái tạo." (The blades of the wind turbine can generate renewable energy.)

Word Variants:

• "Cánh quạt" can be used in different contexts but generally maintains its meaning related to blades or propellers.
• Variants might include specific types of propellers, such as "cánh quạt máy bay" (airplane propeller) or "cánh quạt thủy phi cơ" (seaplane propeller).

Different Meanings:

• While "cánh quạt" primarily refers to propellers, in some contexts, it can also describe the blades of a fan, although this usage is less common.

Synonyms:

• "Quạt": While this generally means "fan," it can sometimes be used to describe smaller propeller-like devices.
• "Cánh": Can refer to "wing" or "blade" in different contexts, but in combination with "quạt," it specifically means propeller.
