The Chinese word **添乱 (tiānluàn)** is a compound verb formed by combining the character **添 (tiān)**, meaning "to add" or "to increase," with the character **乱 (luàn)**, meaning "chaos," "disorder," or "mess." The formation follows a typical verb-resultative structure where the first character denotes an action, and the second character describes the resultant state or outcome; thus, the literal meaning is "to add chaos," which figuratively translates as "to complicate matters," "to cause trouble," or "to be a nuisance." It is an idiomatic and commonly used expression in both spoken and written Chinese to describe actions that worsen an already difficult or messy situation.
