Definition
玩玩 is the verb 玩 (wán) in its V-V reduplicated form. Reduplication of action verbs like this adds a sense of doing something a little bit, for a short while, or in a relaxed, casual way — similar to adding 'a bit' or 'for a while' in English. It often carries a light, informal tone and is very common in spoken Chinese.
