Explanation

Narrow biased people are considered to be narrow minded and they're usually disliked for their intolerance of other cultures and anything unfamiliar to them.

Reading

へんきょう

Explanation

This is a jukugo word that uses the on'yomi readings of the kanji. You didn't learn this reading for 狭 yet, so here's a mnemonic to help you:

The only place narrow minded people will go in Japan is Kyoto (きょう). It's where all the tour guides say to go, and they're too narrow minded to listen to anyone else. So they see Kyoto and head back home right away without seeing anywhere else.

Context

Context Sentences
