Light

On’yomi: こう
Kun’yomi: ひかり、ひか
Radical: 儿 Legs (Kangxi 10)

Frequent enough that you will keep running into it once you read past headlines.

More common than 族 (Tribe), less common than 病 (Sick).

A triceratops (triceratops) stands on top with legs (legs) walking below — the triceratops glows, its legs carrying the radiant beast forward, casting light everywhere it walks.
