About

The Chinese word **去除 (qùchú)** is a compound verb formed through the combination of two synonymous characters: **去 (qù)**, meaning "to go" or "to remove," and **除 (chú)**, meaning "to eliminate," "to get rid of," or "to exclude." This structure, where two characters with similar meanings are paired, is a common method in Chinese word formation (specifically a type of coordinative or synonymous compound) that serves to reinforce and specify the core concept. Together, they create a single, more emphatic verb meaning "to remove," "to eliminate," or "to get rid of," often used in formal, technical, or written contexts to denote a deliberate act of taking something away or eradicating it.
