Tips
usage
Used for abstract entities - nations, eras, industries, religions, schools of thought. Stronger and more written than 兴旺 (xīngwàng, more for businesses/families). Antonym: 衰败 (shuāibài) 'decline'.
memory
兴 'rise/prosper' + 盛 'abundant/flourishing' - both characters carry the same meaning, doubled for emphasis. 盛 also reads chéng meaning 'to fill (a container)' (different word entirely).
