The Vietnamese word "gấp bội" is an adjective that means "multifold" or "manyfold." It is used to describe something that is multiplied by a certain factor or that has many layers or aspects.
You can use "gấp bội" when you want to express that something is increased significantly or that there are multiple instances of something. It is often used in mathematical contexts, discussions about growth, or to describe situations that have many facets.
Mathematics: "Nếu bạn gấp bội số này lên hai lần, bạn sẽ có kết quả là 10." (If you multiply this number by two, you will get a result of 10.)
Growth: "Doanh thu của công ty đã gấp bội so với năm ngoái." (The company’s revenue has multiplied compared to last year.)
In more complex discussions, "gấp bội" can be used in academic or professional contexts to describe exponential growth or to emphasize the scale of change. For instance: - "Sự phát triển công nghệ thông tin đã gấp bội trong thập kỷ qua." (The development of information technology has multiplied in the past decade.)
While "gấp bội" generally refers to multiplication or increase, in some contexts, it can also imply complexity or richness in a discussion or situation, suggesting that there are many layers to consider.
