Anyone who has been to Vietnam or around any immigrant enclave of Vietnamese in the USA where their stores and business post signs will have seen Phát which loosely translated means play or happy. Phúc means blessed, and can also refer to the Buddah. A popular restaurant or food stand name is "Phát Phúc" or "happy Buddah" which causes many English speakers to snicker and giggle.
