The word 逃走 is formed by combining two characters, each contributing a related action to create a unified concept. The first character, 逃 (táo), fundamentally means "to escape" or "to flee". It is joined with 走 (zǒu), which means "to walk" or "to leave". Together, they do not simply list two actions; instead, 走 intensifies and physically enacts the escape implied by 逃, resulting in a compound that vividly conveys the idea of "to flee by running away" or "to take flight".
