Morphology

right-hand = right + hand (transparent) = right + hand

A direct compound 'right' + 'hand' denoting location on the right side; meaning is directly deducible from the parts.

Etymology

Right-hand comes from joining right ('the side that is not left') and hand ('your body part'), so a right-hand turn or the right-hand side simply means the side toward your right.
