Explanation

In 'Did he come round?', the word 'round' functions as an adverb modifying the verb 'come.' Here it means 'to this place' or 'here,' indicating direction or movement toward the speaker. This is a British English usage where 'round' can mean 'in this direction.' Adverbs modifying verbs often tell where, when, or how an action happened.
