    DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: to have in the womb) to be in a state of pregnancy.
    Glosses: ['pregnant', 'to be pregnant']
    Comments: This expression contrasts with the meaning of {L:συλλαμβάνω}[b], {D:23.49}, in that it seems to focus more upon the state of pregnancy rather than the event of conception.|It is impossible to determine whether in {S:04000102300010} (ἐν γαστρὶ ἕξει καὶ τέξεται υἱόν ‘she will be pregnant and bear a son’) the focus is upon the state of pregnancy or the fact of conception (see {D:23.49}).
