To Hate
To Detest
transitive verb, godan verb
Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb. The kanji itself means hate and the verb vocab version is to hate or to detest.
What do you hate and detest more than anything? 肉 (にく). That stuff is gross, and you detest it.
私は母を憎んだが、母も同様に私のことを憎んでいました。
I hated my mom and she hated me just the same.
