tự xây

/tu˧˦ sai˧˦/

VI

To build by oneself; self-built, self-constructed

Người đàn ông tự xây ngôi nhà của mình ở vùng nông thôn.

The man built his own house in the countryside by himself.

Etymology

It is a Vietnamese compound phrase formed from "tự" (meaning "self, by oneself") and "xây" (meaning "to build, construct") that entered common Vietnamese vocabulary in the early 20th century.

Memory Aid

Remember "tự" means self, and "xây" means build, so combining them gives "self-build".
