  • Meaning
  • Reading
  • Context
  • Kanji Composition

Meaning

Primary

Exchange Student

Alternatives

International Student, Foreign Student

Word Type

noun

Explanation

Remember 留学, which means "study abroad"? Do you also remember 学生, which is "student"? This word is like those two words mashed together (they share a 学), making it a "study abroad student." What's a better way to say that? How about exchange student!

Reading

りゅうがくせい

Explanation

This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. If you know the readings of your kanji you'll know how to read this as well.

Context

Context Sentences

That class's foreign students look kind of innocent, don't you think?

あの留学生、いつも私と彼氏の写真に変顔とか変なポーズで写り込んでくるんだけど。ちょっとうざいんだよね。

That exchange student is always photobombing pictures of my boyfriend and me. It’s kind of annoying.
