Cách sử dụng
The word 'pharisee' originally comes from the Bible, where it referred to a member of a Jewish sect. Nowadays, the word is often used to describe someone who is very strict or self-righteous in their beliefs, often judging others for not living up to their own standards. For example, if someone always criticizes others for their behavior but never looks at their own shortcomings, they might be called a 'pharisee'. It's important to use the word carefully, as it can be seen as quite insulting.
