Word of the ... whatever: ăn vạ
ăn vạ (verb): to dive (football), to pretend to fall down to get a penalty. Example:
Cầu thủ đội Ý đã ăn vạ trong trận đá với Úc.
(The Italian team dived in the football match against Australia.)
No good language should be without a verb for "dive". Guess who I'm not supporting for the World Cup Final.
