| Refs: | Daijr has separate entries, but has virtually identical explanations. However for 授精 it adds: "「人工−」" GG5 combines, but uses 授精 for all the sub-entries involving AI. The other JEs just have 受精, and include "insemination" in the glosses. |

| Comments: | I don't favour a split, but some comment is needed. I have proposed a note, but maybe we could have another sense for "(artificial) insemination" with a note: "usu. 授精". |

| Comments: | i don't think we need to split, but perhaps note that 受精 is natural and 授精 is artificial |

| Comments: | According to Wikipedia, 受精 and 授精 are translations for the English words fertilization and insemination respectively. https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/体外受精 "日本語では「受精」と「授精」が、表記・音ともに似ているため混同されやすいが、英語では元々、受精はFertilization、授精はInseminationの訳であり、全く別のものである。" Please consider listing them separately in the dictionary. |
