About

The word "如果" is formed by combining the character "如", meaning "like" or "as", which establishes a hypothetical condition, with "果", meaning "fruit" or "result", which refers to the outcome. This combination directly links the notion of a condition to its consequent, resulting in the modern conjunction meaning "if".
