Meanings and usage

noun: tribute, gift
貢

Page lists several distinct senses (tribute/gift noun, 'to pay tribute' verb, a historical imperial-recommendation sense, a surname, plus separate Cantonese-only 'to crawl/wander' senses) all sharing this reading; the core 'tribute' noun sense was picked but the best pos/gloss for actual Teochew usage is uncertain.
