The base meanings don't change though, and we have near equivalents in English: to have one's fill of sorrow; to endure hardship etc. You have to be sensitive to the notion the words are evoking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoneticsem Posted July 21, 2022 at 02:14 AM Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 at 02:14 AM thanks Jim. 饱 2. full, fully ( if you eat full meal, you will feel full, i think this is derived like that. connecting this word to full) 受 receive, suffer I will reconnect it like above. hopefully this will work to remember.
