About

The word "乳房" is formed from the character "乳", which originally depicted a mother cradling a child to nurse and means "milk" or "breast", combined with "房", which consists of "户" (door) and "方" (square or direction) to mean "room" or "chamber"; together they create a literal compound meaning "milk room" to designate the breast.
