đều xây
/dew˧˧ səj˧˧/
VI
Adjective phrase describing something that is evenly built, uniformly constructed, or evenly laid out
Tầng nền của ngôi nhà mới đều xây rất phẳng.
The floor of the new house is very evenly built and flat.
Etymology
This is a compound Vietnamese phrase: "đều" (meaning even, uniform) comes from Old Chinese 調 meaning 'harmonious, even', and "xây" (meaning to build, construct) comes from Proto-Vietic *saːj meaning 'to dig, build', combined to describe evenly constructed work.
Memory Aid
Remember: "đều" = uniform/even, "xây" = build, so put them together to get evenly built.
