Meaning

Primary

National Border

Word Type

noun, の adjective

Explanation

A country boundary is that country's national border. Be careful about crossing it if you're carrying bananas. The border police seem to hate when you tell them you're carrying a banana in your pants when they ask you if you're bringing any fruits back. No idea why.

Reading

こっきょう

くにざかい

Audio not available

Explanation

This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. If you know the readings of your kanji you'll know how to read this as well. The こく gets shortened to a nice little こっ.

Context

Context Sentences

It is common for Border Patrol agents to find foreigners who have entered the U.S. illegally in the bushes near the border.
