The Chinese word 周年 (zhōu nián) is composed of two characters: 周 (zhōu), meaning "complete" or "full", and 年 (nián), meaning "year". Together, they form the compound word 周年, which literally means "complete year" or "full year".The term 周年 is often used to refer to an anniversary, such as the anniversary of a person's birth or death, or the anniversary of a significant event. It can also be used more generally to refer to a period of one year, as in the phrase "the past year".The word 周年 has been used in Chinese for centuries, and its meaning has remained largely unchanged over time. It is a common word that is used in both spoken and written Chinese.
