About

The word 修好 is formed by combining the character 修 (xiū), which carries the core meaning "to repair" or "to mend", with the character 好 (hǎo), which means "good" or "well". The formation follows a logical, cause-and-effect sequence where the action of repairing (修) naturally intends to bring an object or situation to a state of being good, fixed, or restored (好). Thus, the combined concept literally and conceptually means "to repair and make good" or "to fix properly".
