rendered bare — the right side carries no clear meaning the modern reader can use
A person (亻) on the left marks this as a kind of person — here, a slow-witted one. The right side is a late, colloquial piece whose origin doesn't survive clearly into the modern graph. From foolish: 傻瓜、傻事, and dumbstruck — 傻眼.
