About the difference between 忽然 and 突然：
As specified in the entries, 忽然 is only an adverb, but 突然 can be both an adverb and an adjective.
E.g.1 他突然跳了下来，真危险！ [phr] He suddenly jumped down, which was really dangerous.
We can replace 突然 with 忽然 in the sentence above and there is no difference at all.
E.g.2 大家普遍反对这场突然的变革。 [phr] The crowd at large is opposed to this sudden change.
We cannot use 忽然 in e.g.2, because 忽然 is not an adjective.

Yes, there are cultural implications to using 忽然 (hūrán). In Chinese culture, suddenness is often associated with surprise, shock, or unexpectedness. 忽然 (hūrán) is often used to describe a sudden change in a situation or a sudden realization. It can also be used to describe a sudden feeling or emotion, such as a sudden burst of joy or sadness. In Chinese culture, suddenness is often seen as a sign of unpredictability and can be used to emphasize the unexpectedness of a situation.

忽然 (hūrán) is a Chinese adverb that means "suddenly". It is similar to other Chinese words that mean "suddenly", such as 突然 (tūrán) and 马上 (mǎshàng). However, 忽然 (hūrán) is used to describe a sudden change in a situation, while 突然 (tūrán) and 马上 (mǎshàng) are used to describe a sudden action. For example, 忽然 (hūrán) can be used to describe a sudden change in the weather, while 突然 (tūrán) and 马上 (mǎshàng) can be used to describe a sudden action such as running quickly.
