Meaning

Primary

To Be Born

Word Type

intransitive verb, ichidan verb

Explanation

Since this is a kanji with hiragana attached that ends with an う sound, you know that this word is a verb. What's the ultimate verb version of the kanji 生? That would be to be born, the very beginning of life as we know it!

Reading

うまれる

Explanation

You have to remember the う part of this word to read it. To remember that, let's use a mnemonic:

Just imagine someone being born. All they do is scream: UUUUUuuUuuUUUuuuUUUuu (う) the whole time. Go ahead and imagine yourself being born and doing the same thing. Say UUUuuUUuuu out loud to help you to remember.
