Meaning

Primary

To Be Found

Alternatives

To Come Upon, To Come Across

Word Type

intransitive verb, godan verb

Explanation

This word consists of kanji with hiragana attached. Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb. It's made up of the kanji for see and right, so what happens when you see the right thing? You manage to come upon what you're looking for or to be found, if you're the one who's lost and you see the right people that are looking for you.

Note: This verb is almost always used in the negative form. It is very, very rare for it to be positive. So when you're using it, make sure no one found the thing you're talking about!
