傅
fù
(bound form) instructor
surname Fu; (literary) to instruct; to attach; to apply (makeup etc)
person (亻) + spread widely (尃) = one who spreads knowledge
尃 means to spread or disseminate broadly; paired with the person radical, the image is someone who spreads knowledge — a master or instructor. The sense of 'applying' something (like makeup) extends naturally from the same idea of spreading onto a surface.
