The Chinese word 大部分 (dà bù fèn) is composed of three characters: 大 (dà), meaning "big" or "great"; 部 (bù), meaning "part" or "section"; and 分 (fèn), meaning "portion" or "share". When combined, these characters form the compound word 大部分, which literally means "big part" or "large portion". In terms of usage, 大部分 is typically used to refer to a significant or substantial portion of something, often in the context of quantity or size. It can be translated into English as "most", "majority", or "greater part". For example, the sentence 大部分学生都通过了考试 (dà bù fèn xué shēng dōu tòng guò le kǎo shì) means "Most of the students passed the exam".
