Definition

Vietnamese

Khen cực mạnh cho người hoặc thứ gì đó cực kỳ có duyên, hấp dẫn, đậm đà cá tính — 'quá trời' là tăng cường mạnh, làm 'mặn' trở nên cực đoan.

English

An emphatic compliment for someone radiating irresistible charm — 'quá trời' (way beyond heaven) intensifies 'mặn' to an almost overwhelming level. Someone impossibly charismatic.

Legacy note: Southern flavor: mặn cực — funny hoặc hơi đâm.

How it's used: Common as a meme or online-behavior reference.

Example

Vietnamese

Anh MC đó mặn quá trời, nói gì cũng hay và hút hồn.

English

That emcee is incredibly charming — everything he says is engaging and magnetic.
