The Chinese word 胖子 (pàng zi) for "fat person" is composed of two characters: 胖 (pàng) and 子 (zi). The character 胖 (pàng) means "fat" or "obese", and is often used to describe people who are overweight. The character 子 (zi) is a suffix that can be added to nouns to indicate a person or thing that is related to the noun. In this case, the character 子 (zi) indicates that 胖子 (pàng zi) refers to a person who is fat.The word 胖子 (pàng zi) is a relatively informal way to refer to a fat person, and is often used in a humorous or affectionate way. However, it can also be used in a derogatory way, so it is important to use it with caution.The word 胖子 (pàng zi) is not the only way to refer to a fat person in Chinese. There are a number of other words and phrases that can be used, including 肥胖 (féi pàng), which means "obese", and 肉多 (ròu duō), which means "having a lot of flesh".
