What do you think of when you hear the word "noisy"?
If you hear the sentence - "It is New Year and it is noisy."
Do you think the speaker is talking about the event in a festive sense? In Chinese there are at least two ways to say noisy.
熱鬧 (T) /热闹 (S) [rènao]
The meaning of this is noisy, but has a joyful festive undertone.
On the other hand if you hear
吵 (T/S) [chǎo] It means noisy.
