About

The word 出来 is formed by combining two directional characters: 出, which pictorially represents a foot stepping out of a cavity or enclosure, meaning "to exit" or "to go out", and 来, which originally depicted a growing plant, meaning "to come" or movement toward a point of reference. Their combination visually and conceptually merges the action of moving outward from an interior (出) with the orientation of that movement toward the speaker or a focal point (来), creating a single compound that encapsulates the integrated path of "to come out".
