Meaning

Primary

Sick Person

Alternative

Patient

Word Type

noun

Explanation

A person who is sick is a sick person. They are also a patient, at least we can hope they are, for their sake.

Reading

びょうにん

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. Note that this uses the にん reading for 人. This is because every sick person enjoys laying in bed playing nintendo.
