(BABY) FORMULA   乳児用調合乳、粉ミルク

Explanation

  • Formula or baby formula is artificial milk given to babies instead of milk from the breast.

    Be Careful! The word formula can be used for BOTH artificial milk bought as a powder and as a ready-to-drink liquid.
  • formula または、baby formula は、赤ん坊に母乳の代わりに与える人工乳のことです。

    注意:formula は、粉ミルクとして売られているものと、液状のミルクで売られているものの両方をさします。
