It consists of two radicals: 人 (hito), which means "person", and 予 (yo), which means "anticipation" or "prediction". The combination of these two radicals suggests a person who is kind and predictable in his actions. Kanji 優 can also be read as "Yasu", which means "cheap" or "economic", but this reading is less common.
