卓ちゃ袱ぶ

noun

meal; dining

Archaic term for a meal, originally from Chinese "zhuofu". Not used in modern Japanese; appears only in historical contexts or the compound 卓袱台 (ちゃぶだい, low dining table).

• 「卓ちゃ袱ぶ」は古ふるい言こと葉ばで、今いまは「ちゃぶ台だい」の一いち部ぶとして残のこっている。

  "卓袱" is an old word; today it survives only as part of "ちゃぶ台" (low dining table).
