About

The word 着陆 is formed by combining two characters: 着, which conveys the idea of making contact, touching down, or settling upon, and 陆, which means "land" or "mainland". Together, they create a direct and vivid conceptual image of an aircraft or object descending from the air and making contact with the solid ground, thus pictorially constructing the meaning "to land".
