English meaning : to suffer
Russian meaning[s]: 1) расстилать; подстилка; постель; 2) замостить; устлать; [pù] 1) лавка, магазин; ломбард, см. 舖; 2) уст. станция на почтовом тракте; 3) койка, кровать
Comments: Also read *pha, MC phü, Pek. fū id. "Suffer" is the oldest meaning attested (already in Shijing), but certainly not the basic meaning of the character (it is a loan usage for 痡 q.v.). It is used for several homonymous words with the reading *phā - 'a k. of metallic ornament (animal's head)'; 'a k. of metallic vessel' (both attested only since Han); 'to spread out' (whence Viet. phô < 'to spread out (for show)'. Since Tang another reading is attested: (OC *phā-s), MC phò, Mand. pù, Viet. phố 'store, trading house' - probably a derivate from *phā with the meaning 'to spread out'.
