襁褓 (The first syllable is *qiǎng* [jiang + yang fanqie]. Bao Xian's commentary on the Lunyu says: "Those carrying [infants] with an apparatus call it a 襁 (*qiǎng*)." The Bowuzhi says: "Woven from threads, eight inches wide and one zhang two chi long, used to bind an infant to the back." The Shuowen jiezi says: "Clothing for carrying a child; it is formed with 'clothing' (衣) and 強 as the phonetic component." The second syllable is pronounced *bǎo*; the meaning was already explained in detail in the thirteenth fascicle of the Mūlasarvāstivāda-vinaya).
