Rough, bumpy movement of air, most often talked about on an airplane — when the plane shakes because the air outside is not smooth. You might hear 'we hit some turbulence' during a flight. The word is also used for water moving roughly, like in a fast river. And people use it for life too: 'a time of turbulence' means a time full of sudden trouble, change, and difficulty, not calm at all.
亂流;也可指動盪、不穩定的局勢
組成Comes from a Latin word for a crowd or a disturbance.
