妊胎 (The first character has the fanqie 汝朕 [rèn], or 如林 [rén]. The Shuowen states: 'Pregnant.' The Qieyun states: 'To bear a child in the body; derived from 女 with 上 as phonetic.' In the Vinaya text it is written as the popular character 姙. The second character has the fanqie 湯來 [tāi]. The Kaosheng states: 'Womb and fetus; pregnancy.' The Erya states: '胎 means beginning.' Guo's commentary states: 'An unformed embryo is also the beginning of things.').
