"Pitch dark" nghĩa là gì?


"Pitch dark" -> nghĩa là rất tối tăm, đen ngòm; tối mịt, đen kịt.

Ví dụ
Almost every day for the past couple of weeks, notifications (thông báo) of death have been posted on social media as if the app has become a new informal obituary (cáo phó). Pitch-dark profile photos, black cover pictures, images of a single lighted candle have flooded (tràn ngập) the newsfeed. 

It takes some manoeuvring (vận động) to get around the nails, but once in, you find yourself in a large cool, pitch-dark room. It has little gun windows, and there’s an extra room. The hatch over the bunker even sports a World War II soldier’s helmet.

The only other sound was that of water lapping (vỗ nhẹ) against the hull of the boat. There was nothing to see; it was pitch dark. Someone was walking about in the narrow passageway outside my cabin. The power came back after a while. I went back to sleep. We were up at first light around 5 am. without any alarm or wake-up call. The time zone in Northeast India is certainly different.

Called Tioram, this idyllic (bình dị) stone ruin is set on a large grassy berm (con đường hẹp) guarding the inner loch (hồ) – or rather, that’s the view we were greeted with in the morning, having actually found the anchorage in pitch dark. Like buying fenders in a storm, I don’t recommend night-time loch navigation.
