To Think About
To Consider, To Give Thought
transitive verb, ichidan 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 think, so the verb version is to think about or to consider.
Note that this isn't the "to think" that is like "I think that he is a power ranger." No, this is more like the actual thinking action. That's why this word is "to think about" or "to consider" rather than plain old "to think" which is 思う.
The only thing you're able to think about is kangaroos (かんが). You just have so many kangaroo-related questions to consider: Why do they hop everywhere? Are they actually good at boxing? What's in those pouches, anyway? So much to think about.
