Meanings and usage
verb: to bend, to bow
鞠
鞠
Page lists many senses (leather ball used in games, bow, to bend, to rear/nourish, to admonish, young/childish, surname, alt form of 鞫/菊) under the same reading with no clear per-sense disambiguation; picked 'to bend/bow' as most plausible given its use in the compound 鞠躬.
