About

The word 放屁 is formed by directly combining two characters: 放 (fàng), which means "to release" or "to let go", and 屁 (pì), which means "fart". It literally describes the physical act of passing gas. This concrete action is then used metaphorically to create a vivid, derogatory idiom meaning "to talk nonsense", as if one's words are as worthless or offensive as expelled air.
