禀复

bǐng fù

to report back (to a superior)

bǐng

to make a report (to a superior)

variant of 復|复[fu4]

report up (禀) + reply back (复) = formally reporting back to a superior

禀 combines a covered enclosure with an altar (示), evoking something formally presented from above — a structured report offered with deference. 复 carries the sense of going back to someone, making the compound feel like closing a loop with one's superior.
