Pregnant [妊娠]: the first [character is pronounced with the fanqie] ru-zhen (如鴆反); the second is [pronounced with the fanqie] shu-lin (書隣反). The Guangya states: 'Rèn (妊) is also written as 㑗 (㑗 has the sound shen).' The Mao Commentary on the Shijing states: 'Shēn (娠) means carrying a fetus in pregnancy.' The Shuowen [jiezi] gives the same meaning; both are formed from [the semantic component] nǚ (女, woman) with rén (壬) and chén (辰) as phonetics, respectively.
