The Chinese word "推开" is a verb-resultative compound formed by combining the verb "推" (tuī, meaning "to push") with the resultative complement "开" (kāi, meaning "to open" or "to become open"). This structure is a common grammatical pattern in Chinese where the first character denotes an action, and the second character describes the result or outcome of that action. Therefore, "推开" literally means "to push and cause to open", as in pushing a door open, and by extension, it conveys the complete action of pushing something away or aside to create an opening or distance.
