FAN-4

('fan' in the fourth tone)

There are about 35 standard Chinese characters that are spoken 'fan'. Among them are the following characters that themselves are spoken 'fan' and are sound-determining elements in more complicated characters: 反 , 犯 , 凡 , 番 

饭 = cooked rice

For clarity, the two-character term is often used:

米饭 = mi(3)fan(4) = cooked rice

吃饭 = chi(1)fan(4) = have a meal (lit. eat rice)

*****

犯 = to offend (not used as a single-character word)

犯罪 = fan(4) zui(4) = to commit a crime

犯法 = fan(4)fa(3) = to break the law

*****

范 = model

As often, the two-character version is preferred:

模范 = mo(2)fan(4) = model, a good example of behavior
