60.52

Rǔbǔ 乳哺 (nursing and feeding; [bǔ is] pronounced with the fanqie pú + mù. Xu Shuzhong's commentary to the Huainanzi says: 'Chewing food in one's mouth and spitting it out to feed an infant is called bǔ.' It derives from kǒu 口 with fǔ 甫 as phonetic. In the Vinaya text it derives from shí 食, written as 餔 and pronounced with the fanqie bù + gū, which is incorrect).
