Compound directional complement

Structure Verb + 上/下/进/出/回/过 + 来/去

Two direction clues combine: first the path (上/下/进/出/回/过…) and then 来/去 depending on whether it’s toward or away from the speaker. 走进来 = "come in (walking, toward me)"; 拿出去 = "take out (carrying it away)"; 跑回来 = "run back here". A place-object goes between the verb and 来/去: 走进房间来.

Levels are indicative: they follow the standard Chinese Grammar Wiki (AllSet Learning) progression, not an official HSK 3.0 mapping. We never assign levels by eye.
