Étymologie et composants

The Chinese word 模范 (mófàn) is composed of two characters: 模 (mó) and 范 (fàn). 模 originally means "to imitate" or "to copy", and 范 means "model" or "standard". Together, 模范 means "model" or "exemplar".The word 模范 first appeared in the Han Dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD). It was used to describe people who were worthy of imitation, such as sages and heroes. In the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD), the word 模范 began to be used more broadly to refer to anyone who was worthy of emulation, regardless of their social status.Today, 模范 is still used in Chinese to mean "model" or "exemplar". It is often used to describe people who have made significant contributions to society, such as scientists, artists, and athletes. 模范 can also be used to describe things that are worthy of imitation, such as works of art or literature.The word 模范 is a reminder that we should always strive to be our best selves. We should look to those who have come before us and learn from their example. We should also be mindful of the impact that our own actions have on others, and we should always try to set a positive example.
