Q

返
返嚟 - come back : the direction towards the speaker
返去 - go back : the direction away from the speaker
the verb “返” , literally meaning is “to return”, but it is used more restrictedly in Cantonese. It only applies to one’s own country or home, or some sort of “base”, such as a school is to its teachers and students, or an office to those working in it

A

“返” is usually followed by the destination or an “Aspect of Direction” to complete the sense. NEVER SAY “我返” something is missing.
