VI
The phrase means "those who are completely enclosed/encircled" in context
Người tôn quây kín là những người bị chặn hết lối đi.
The people who are completely encircled are those who have all their exits blocked.
Etymology
"Tôn" is an alternative form of "vòn" meaning to encircle, from Old Vietnamese. "Quây kín" means to close off completely, combining native Vietnamese vocabulary words.
Memory Aid
Break the phrase: "quây" = to encircle, "kín" = closed, so "quây kín" = closed circle; the full phrase refers to people/things inside that closed circle.
