About

The word "返回" is formed by combining the characters "返" and "回". "返" uses the radical "辶" for movement and the component "反" for reversal, meaning to turn back. "回" is a pictograph symbolizing circling back to an origin. Together, they create a compound where both characters reinforce the concept of returning to a previous place or state.
