rdfs:comment | - During the Vietnam War, Tam Syn (Vietnamese: "person I refuse to bow to") was a common phrase used to depict anger or frustration towards the Viet Cong. The phrase is considered to be a parallel insult to the English term "son of a bitch." Though the phrase did not remain popular after the war, many veterans called reporters who hounded them when they were getting off the planes back home "tam syns."
