to give material assistance to
🤲 接 hand-over + 济 aid/relief = pass material aid to someone in need
济 carries the sense of relieving hardship (same char as in 救济 relief); pairing it with 接 hand-over gives the idea of passing food, money, or supplies to someone who is short.
接 — hand 扌 + concubine 妾 (phonetic)
接 is a semantic-phonetic compound. The hand radical 扌 carries the meaning of receiving or joining with the hand, while 妾 supplies the sound. From 'taking with the hand' it broadened to 'receive, meet, connect, join together'.
