The character 露() lù ‘dew’ combines 雨 (yǔ) ‘rain’ (precipitation/condensation/dew), and 路() lù ‘road’ (phonosemantic).
Note: 路 here with 各() gè as in 落() luò ‘fall/drop (off/down to the ground)’; 略() lüè ‘set/mark land boundaries’.
Note: Dew falls/settles on things left exposed (裸露) to the elements outdoors overnight (on the road); hence extended meanings as in 露天 lùtiān ‘outdoors’, 暴露 bàolù ‘expose, reveal’; 露 lù ‘distilled beverages’ from flowers or fruits (distillation ends in condensation, as of dew).
HDZ: 露 : lù : 露水; 润泽; 露天, 在屋外; 显露 (藏头露尾, 原形毕露); 洩/泄露; 败坏, 破坏; 羸弱, 疲惫; 芳冽的酒; (花露水); 輅: 大车 (cf. 路); 路: 大; (姓) • lòu : 显现出来 (露面, 露马脚)
