About
The character 娩 is a phono-semantic compound with the female radical 女 on the left, linking it to women or feminine actions, and the phonetic component 免 (miǎn) on the right. This right component provides the pronunciation, while its meanings of removal or escape contextually parallel the physical separation in birth. Historically, 娩 had two definitions based on pronunciation: one meaning gentle or yielding, and the other referring to childbirth. This physiological sense has become dominant in modern usage for maternal delivery.
