The Chinese word 宣传 (xuānchuán) is composed of two characters: 宣 (xuān) and 传 (chuán). The character 宣 originally meant "to proclaim" or "to announce," and it is often used in the context of making something known to the public. The character 传, on the other hand, means "to transmit" or "to pass on," and it is often used in the context of spreading information or knowledge. When these two characters are combined, they form the word 宣传, which can be translated as "propaganda" or "publicity." In modern Chinese, 宣传 is used to refer to the activities of spreading information or ideas to the public, often with the intention of influencing their opinions or behavior.
