kẻ hút máu
/ˈblʌdsʌkə(r)//ˈblʌdsʌkər/The origin of the word "bloodsucker" dates back to the 14th century. Initially, it referred to a plant that was said to suck the juices from other plants. The term was derived from the Old English words "blod" meaning "blood" and "sucian" meaning "to suck". Over time, the meaning of the term shifted to describe an animal that feeds on the blood of another, such as a vampire or a leech. In the 17th century, the term gained a more sinister connotation, often used to describe a person or entity that manipulated or exploited others for personal gain. Today, the term "bloodsucker" is often used figuratively to describe someone who is seen as parasitic, exploitative, or vampiric in their behavior.
