Definition
馈 is a bound morpheme — it never appears as a standalone word in modern Chinese. It combines with other characters to form verbs or nouns related to 'giving, presenting, or offering', especially in formal or literary contexts. Common compounds include 馈赠 (to present a gift), 反馈 (feedback, lit. 'return-present'), and 贡献 (to contribute; the second character 献 also means 'offer'). Learners should treat 馈 as a component of multi-character words rather than a free verb.
