16 急行 Express

  • Go to
  • Meaning
  • Reading
  • Context
  • Kanji Composition

Meaning

Primary

Express

Word Type

noun, する verb, の adjective

Explanation

Things that hurry and go faster than the other things are express. This is often used with trains or subways, so look out for it if you're looking to get somewhere in a hurry. Also be careful in case it doesn't stop at your stop, because 急行 trains don't stop at every station (which is what makes them express!).

Reading

きゅうこう

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.

Context

Context Sentences
