About
毓, the original form of 育, relates to childbirth, rearing, and nourishment. The character's structure unites 每 (mother) on the left, anchoring the meaning in maternal care, with 㐬 on the right, an inverted child accompanied by amniotic fluid, visually capturing the moment of delivery. While it originally referred to physical birth and nursing an infant, the sense later broadened to include educating the young, cultivating talent, and fostering growth in natural environments.
