答:潤、未潤別去果遠近得名不同,生、老死二正名為苦,是彼苦因,名苦胎藏,依主釋也。《疏》本多云「胎藏苦」者,寫傳誤也。

Answer: Through the distinction of being moisturized versus not yet moisturized, and their relative distance from the result, they receive different names. Birth and aging-and-death are properly called suffering; being the causes of that suffering, [the five] are called 'the womb-matrix of suffering' (suffering's womb-matrix), which is a determinative compound (tatpuruṣa). Most manuscripts of the Commentary read 'the suffering of the womb-matrix,' which is a scribal error in transmission.
