To Be Entangled
To Be Tangled, To Pick A Fight, To Be Involved With, To Get Entangled
intransitive verb, godan verb
This word consists of kanji with hiragana attached. Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb. The kanji itself means entangle so the verb vocab version is to be entangled. This is when something is entangled on its own (you're not directly doing the entangling). You can remember this because of the む, which is you saying move (む) out of the way, I have to take care of this entanglement mess that just happened on its own.
Since this word consists of a kanji with hiragana attached, you can bet that it will use the kun'yomi reading. You didn't learn that reading with this kanji, so here's a mnemonic to help you:
