Kikokushijo
A child who returned to his/her home country after living another country (at least one year) is called kikokushijo (帰国子女) in Japanese.
Ki (帰) means "to return to somewhere" and koku (国) means "country," so kikoku (帰国) means "to return (back) to one's country."
Shi (子) usually means "child," but here it means "son."
In addition, jo (女) usually means "woman," but here it means "daughter."
In other words, kikokushijo literally means "a son or a daughter who returned back to the home country."
