How to use 汇报
汇报 is used at work or school when you report progress or results to a superior or a group. It works as a verb and as a noun. Example: 我明天向经理汇报工作。(Wǒ míngtiān xiàng jīnglǐ huìbào gōngzuò.) I will report on my work to the manager tomorrow.
汇 (huì) means to gather, like streams of water (氵) flowing together, and 报 (bào) means to report. So 汇报 is gathering up information and reporting it back.
Common mistake: Learners often say 跟经理汇报 or put the person directly after the verb, as in 汇报经理. The natural pattern is 向 + person + 汇报 + topic. Also, 汇 is fourth tone (huì), not huí like 回.
