你

nǐ

you (Note: In Taiwan, 妳 is used to address females, but in mainland China, it is not commonly used. Instead, 你 is used to address both males and females.)

person (亻) + you — archaic (尔) = you

尔 was an older Chinese word for 'you', now rarely used alone. Adding the person radical (亻) grounded it as a word specifically about addressing another human being.
