"節句" meaning in All languages combined

See 節句 on Wiktionary

Noun [Japanese]

IPA: [se̞k̚kɯ̟ᵝ] Forms: 節句 [canonical] (ruby: (せっ), ()), sekku [romanization]
Etymology: Appears to be a Japanese coinage using Middle Chinese-derived components, possibly derived as a portmanteau or contraction from 節 (setsu, “season”) + 供御 (kugo, “offering of food or drink”). Compound of 節 (setsu, “season”) + 供 (ku, “offering”), in reference to offerings of food and drink made by the nobility to shrines and temples for the seasonal celebrations. The use of 句 to spell the ku portion is an example of ateji.
