回答 (huí dá) means to answer or reply. 回 means to return and 答 means to respond. Together they describe giving a response to a question or request (回答问题, answer a question). It can also function as a noun (他的回答让我很满意, his answer satisfied me). Related words: 回复 (huí fù) tends to be used for written or digital replies; 答复 (dá fù) is more formal. The question word counterpart is 问 (wèn, to ask) or 提问 (tí wèn, to raise a question).
