Meaning

Primary

Sun

Alternative

Day

Word Type

noun

Explanation

The kanji and the word are exactly the same. That means they share meanings as well. Take note that this word means both "sun" and "day," though. Why? because the sun takes a day to go around and come back!

Reading

ひ

Explanation

Since this word is made up of a single kanji, it uses the kun'yomi reading. Here's a mnemonic to help you to remember it:

What do you feel from the sun? You feel the heat (ひ).

Context

Context Sentences
