The Chinese word 走路 (zǒulù) for "to walk" is composed of two characters: 走 (zǒu) and 路 (lù). The character 走 originally meant "to run" or "to flee", and it is composed of the radical 辵 (chù), which indicates movement, and the phonetic component 走 (zǒu). The character 路 originally meant "a path" or "a road", and it is composed of the radical 辵 (chù) and the phonetic component 土 (tǔ), which indicates earth or land. When combined, the characters 走 and 路 form the compound word 走路, which literally means "to walk on the road" and has the extended meaning of "to walk".
