"Bog standard" = tiêu chuẩn đầm lầy -> nghĩa là hoàn toàn bình thường, không có gì đặc biệt.

Ví dụ
While most people snap the classic ‘posing (tạo dáng) in front of the oldest building at their uni’ shot, these people have gone above and beyond. From a girl taking pictures with Southampton’s defibrillator (máy khử rung tim) because “Soton takes my breath away”, to a literal car crash, these pictures will make you regret your bog standard photoshoot.

And for bog standard fintechs stuck in a perennial struggle to make money (see, for example, this excellent piece on Monzo boss TS Anil’s efforts), crypto is becoming harder and harder to ignore.

You don’t get a reputation (danh tiếng) for being the cleanest city on earth when your loos are a little lacking (thiếu); when your bogs are, well, bog-standard. Public conveniences actually fall under the remit of the National Environment Agency, charged with promoting clean and well-maintained public toilets.

One wrote: “You just need a good old fashioned ‘bog standard’ lever (đòn bẩy) on the front or a pull chain… none of this new fangled wizardry that nobody can figure out…. but chill out either way, you are looking a bit flushed!” they laughed.
