Meaning

Primary

To Be Fried Up

Alternatives

To Be Deep Fried, To Be Up

Word Type

intransitive verb, godan verb

Explanation

This word consists of kanji with hiragana attached. Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb.

This is an intransitive verb. The kanji means hoist, but the verb most commonly means to be fried up, ready to eat. Imagine something being hoisted up onto the table because it's fried and ready to eat. The verb can also mean, more logically, to be up.

Reading

あがる

Explanation

Since this word has okurigana (hiragana attached to the kanji) you know that it's probably going to be the kun'yomi reading.

Lucky for you, the kanji readings for transitive and intransitive verbs are almost always the same. Once you learn one, you know them both! This reading is the same as 揚げる.

Context

Context Sentences

唐揚げ揚がったよ!

We waited quietly until the tempura was deep fried.

旗が揚がったら出発だ。

We'll head out once the flag is up.
