About
The Chinese word 逐出 (zhúchū) is a verb compound formed through semantic combination, where the first character 逐 means "to chase" or "to expel," and the second character 出 means "to go out" or "to exit." Together, they create a cohesive meaning where 逐 provides the action of forcing someone to leave, and 出 specifies the directional result of that action—outward. This structure follows a common pattern in Chinese where a verb (逐) is modified or its outcome is specified by a following directional complement (出), resulting in the complete meaning "to drive out" or "to expel."
