And as a practical matter, it doesn't really clarify the pronunciation of Nguyen unless one knows which English pronunciation of ng you're referring to. I'm just teasing with this pedantry, of course; I understood what you meant. But then, I already knew how to pronounce Nguyen.
What are bruises? Bruises are bluish or purple-coloured patches that appear on the skin when tiny blood vessels, called capillaries, break or burst underneath. The blood from the capillaries leaks into the soft tissue under your skin, causing the discolouration.
Bruises and Blood Spots Under the Skin. Bruises develop when small blood vessels under the skin tear or rupture, most often from a bump or fall. Blood leaks into tissues under the skin and causes the black-and-blue color. As bruises (contusions) heal, usually within 2 to 4 weeks, they often turn colors, including purplish black, reddish blue, or yellowish green. Sometimes the area of the bruise spreads down the body in the direction of gravity.
