Meaning

Primary

Animal

Word Type

noun

Explanation

A moving thing... think about the "things" that move. Technically it could be a lot of things (aka basically anything), but in this case we are talking about moving living things. We won't include humans, because humans are too good to be called things. This refers to animals instead.

Reading

どうぶつ

Explanation

This is a jukugo word that uses the on'yomi readings of the kanji. You should be able to read this on your own.

Context
