超える
こえる · koeru · JLPT N3 · verb-ichidan
to exceed
🦘 超 has 走 (run) inside: run past the line, koeru = go over the limit
The kanji 超 is 走 (run) plus 召 as the sound part, so its core sense is running past a mark. It is the same 超 read chō in 超特急, super express. Sound hook: koeru, go-err-u, you go too far and overshoot.
超 — 走 (run) + 召 (summon, phonetic)
A semantic-phonetic compound: 走 'run' gives the meaning of moving past or going beyond, while 召 'summon' supplies the sound. The original sense was to leap or stride over something, which extended to 'surpass' and 'exceed'.
