hiền

Etymology
. According to Nguyễn Quốc Hùng's :

"vi"

- Rất tài giỏi — Có tài năng và đức độ — Tốt đẹp — Không phải là hiền lành theo nghĩa Việt Nam

The semantic bleaching from "wise/virtuous" to "mild" probably comes from expressions relating to wifehood and motherhood, such as >. Compare phrases such as and. This term has compounded with other words and morphemes which did not suffer this kind of semantic bleaching, such as in.
