复查(復查)fùchá(fu4cha2)

Cultural note

In Chinese culture, thoroughness and accuracy are highly valued, especially in fields like medicine and education, making 复查 an important concept in ensuring quality and reliability.

Memory tip

Think of 复 as 'to return' and 查 as 'to check.' Imagine a detective returning to the scene of a crime to check the evidence again. The 'fu' in 'fù' sounds like 'fu' in 'fool,' reminding you not to be a fool by skipping the recheck!
