couvade
/kuːˈvɑːd/noun
mass noun
- the custom in some cultures in which a man takes to his bed and goes through certain rituals when his child is being born, as though he were physically affected by the birth拟娩（某些文化中的习俗： 丈夫在孩子出生时卧床并进行一些仪式, 仿佛分娩也给他带来了身体上的痛楚）。
词源
mid 19th cent.: French, from couver 'to hatch', from Latin cubare 'lie down'. The adoption of the term in French was due to a misunderstanding of the phrase faire la couvade 'sit doing nothing', used by earlier writers.
