The kanji 造造 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, keisei moji). The semantic component (意符, ifu) is the "辶" radical, which represents movement or going. The phonetic component (音符, onpu) is "告" (koku), which originally depicted a mouth and words, suggesting communication or informing. The combination of these elements initially alluded to going forward to create something using one's words or instructions. Over time, the meaning shifted more towards the act of making or creating itself.
