Definder - what does the word mean?

What is deceptively intelligent?

A compinsult, used when someone is smarter than they appear. It may be that it's being looked at such that the "thing" (whatever it is) is deceptive. In a way, that's true, but it is we who are being deceived. If his intelligence is deceptive, I am being deceived as to his intelligence.
