To Say "Fans" in Chinese


Fans in Chinese


Recently, the word "粉丝(fěnsī)" has become very popular in China. The original meaning of "粉丝(fěnsī)" is glass noodle. It's a traditional Chinese food. Recently, "粉丝(fěnsī)" has taken on an extended meaning. It has come to be used as the transliteration of the word "fans."
It can also be used to mean enthusiast, which is usually represented with the character "迷(mí)." If you are crazy about a movie, then you are a "粉丝(fěnsī)" of this film, and we can also call you "影迷(yǐngmí), the film's fan." If you love rock, then you are a "摇滚迷(yáogǔn mí), rock fan." And we also have "戏迷(xìmí), opera fan," "歌迷(gēmí), being the fan of a song," etc. In addition, we can also shorten "粉丝(fěnsī)" to "粉(fěn)." For example, "果粉(guǒfěn), Apple fan."
