About

The word "逃脱" is formed through the semantic combination of two characters: "逃", which conveys the core idea of fleeing or running away, and "脱", which adds the nuance of slipping off, breaking free, or disentangling oneself. Together, they create a compound word where the meanings reinforce each other, emphasizing a complete or successful escape from confinement, capture, or a restrictive situation, thus encapsulating the notion of not just fleeing but effectively liberating oneself.
