clever
悧 centers on mental sharpness and quick understanding: being clever or intellectually agile.
悧 combines the heart radical 忄 with 利 (sharp, profit), suggesting a sharp mind or cleverness. The exact historical development is uncertain, but the phono-semantic structure with 利 contributing sound and meaning is plausible.
The heart radical 忄 beside 利 (sharp) suggests a heart that is sharp like a blade: a clever, quick-witted mind.
For リ, imagine a clever person named Lee who always has a sharp comeback: Lee -> リ, and his heart is as sharp as his wit.
