The Chinese word 逃走 (táozǒu) is composed of two characters: 逃 (táo) and 走 (zǒu). The character 逃 originally meant "to flee" or "to escape", and it is composed of the radical 辵 (chuò), which indicates movement, and the phonetic component 夭 (yāo), which is related to the idea of "running away". The character 走 originally meant "to walk" or "to run", and it is composed of the radical 辵 and the phonetic component 奏 (zòu), which is related to the idea of "moving forward". When combined, the two characters 逃 and 走 form the compound word 逃走, which means "to flee" or "to escape".
