Meaning

Primary

To Quit

Alternative

Word Type

transitive verb, ichidan 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. The kanji itself means quit so the verb vocab version is to quit.

Reading

やめる

Explanation

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: "Hey, you going to quit?" "Yah (や) man, I'm going to quit."
