Meaning

Primary

To Leak Something

Alternative

To Leak

Word Type

transitive verb, godan verb

Explanation

If 漏れる is "to leak," then this is when you do the leaking yourself. The reason this thing is leaking, though (and it shouldn't be), is because you rushed (らす) the job (because you did it yourself), which is why you know this is to leak something.

Reading

もらす
  • Kyoko
    (Tokyo accent, female)
  • Kenichi
    (Tokyo accent, male)

Explanation

The reading comes from 漏れる, so if you know that, you know this! Don't let that memory leak from your head.
