The Chinese word for "running" is 跑步 (pǎobù). It is a compound word consisting of two characters: 跑 (pǎo), which means "to run," and 步 (bù), which means "step." The character 跑 is composed of two parts: the radical 辵 (chù), which indicates that the word is related to movement, and the phonetic component 夆 (bào), which gives the character its pronunciation. The character 步 is composed of the radical 止 (zhǐ), which means "to stop," and the phonetic component 甫 (fǔ), which gives the character its pronunciation. Together, the two characters 跑 and 步 form the word 跑步, which means "to run."
