The Chinese word 重逢 (chóngféng) is a compound formed through the combination of two distinct characters: 重 (chóng), meaning "again" or "re-", and 逢 (féng), meaning "to meet" or "to come across". The word is constructed via semantic compounding, where the first character 重 functions as an adverbial modifier, indicating the manner of the action expressed by the second character 逢. Therefore, the literal and combined meaning is "to meet again", specifically referring to a reunion after a long separation. This formation follows a common grammatical pattern in Chinese (similar to an adverb-verb structure) to create a concise and expressive bisyllabic word.
