The Chinese word 反响 (fǎnxiǎng) is composed of two characters: 反 (fǎn) and 响 (xiǎng). The character 反 means "against", "opposite", or "back", while the character 响 means "sound", "echo", or "resonance". Together, the two characters form the word 反响, which literally means "against the sound" or "echo". In a figurative sense, 反响 can be used to refer to the reaction, response, or feedback to something, such as a speech, performance, or event. It can also be used to describe the impact, influence, or consequences of something. For example, a speech may have a positive 反响 (positive response) from the audience, or a new policy may have a negative 反响 (negative impact) on the economy.
