About
The word 料到 is formed through a conceptual blend where the character 料 (liào), carrying its core meaning of "to estimate" or "to anticipate", is combined with 到 (dào), which denotes "arrival" or "achievement". This fusion visually and notionally creates the image of one's anticipation or mental calculation successfully arriving at a confirmed outcome, thereby forming the complete idea of "to have foreseen" or "to have expected", where the foresight itself reaches its point of realization.
