hiệp phụ

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

Vietnamese

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

hiệp (round) +‎ phụ (secondary), literally secondary round. hiệp can be translated as "half", but it means "round" or "game" in general because not every sport match consists of only two games (thus "halves") like soccer.

Pronunciation

[edit]

Noun

[edit]

hiệp phụ

  1. (sports) a game of overtime/extra time

Usage notes

[edit]

If a match extends to extra time, the main games may be dubbed hiệp chính (literally primary rounds) as the opposite.
