Meaning

Primary

Senbei

Alternative

Word Type

noun

Explanation

What do you get when you roast mochi? Senbei, a crispy Japanese rice cracker!

Reading

せんべい

Explanation

This is a jukugo word that uses the on'yomi readings of the kanji. You haven't learned the on'yomi for the second kanji, but if you remember the meaning of the word, that will get you to the reading. In case you're having trouble, here's a mnemonic to help:

You sit eating senbei next to a bay (べい), looking out over the water as you crunch.

Context

Context Sentences
