Etymology

This is a common Vietnamese verbal phrase. "Bị" means "to be affected by an unwanted situation", "chậm" means "slow", and "tiến độ" means "work progress schedule", combining to form this phrase in the 20th century as Vietnamese work and project planning terminology became standardized.

Memory Aid

Break the phrase into parts: bị (suffer from) + chậm (slow) + tiến độ (schedule) = suffer from a slow schedule = behind schedule.
