Character Breakdown

Meaning and Usage

The word 反弹 (fǎntán) primarily means 'to rebound' or 'to bounce back.' It is commonly used in financial contexts to describe prices or markets that recover after a decline, as well as in physical contexts like a ball bouncing. It can also describe emotional or abstract rebounds, such as moods or situations improving after a setback.

Common Collocations

  • 反弹价格 (rebound in price): used when prices rise again after falling.
  • 反弹市场 (market rebound): refers to a market recovering after a drop.
  • 反弹情绪 (emotional rebound): describes mood improvement.

Usage Notes

When used for physical objects like balls, 反弹 emphasizes the action of bouncing back after hitting a surface. In financial or abstract contexts, it implies a recovery or reversal of a downward trend. It is often contrasted with (diē, to fall) or 下降 (xiàjiàng, to decline).

Avoid confusing 反弹 with 反应 (reaction) or 反复 (repeatedly), as 反弹 specifically involves a rebound or bounce effect.

Register and Tone

The term is neutral and appropriate in both formal and informal contexts, especially in news reports, financial discussions, and everyday descriptions of physical bouncing.

Example Sentences
