The Chinese character 纷纷 (fēnfēn) is composed of two parts: the radical 雨 (yǔ), which means "rain", and the phonetic component 分 (fēn), which has the sound "fēn". The original meaning of 纷纷 is "the sound of rain falling", and it is often used to describe the sound of heavy rain or snow. In modern Chinese, 纷纷 is also used to describe a large number of things or people moving or happening at the same time, and it can be translated as "in great numbers", "in a flurry", or "in a rush". For example, the sentence 纷纷扬扬的大雪 (fēnfēn yángyáng de dàxuě) means "the snowflakes are falling in great numbers".
