Like
Love, Likable, Lovable
noun, な adjective
You know that 好 means like and this vocab word means the same thing: like or love!
This word is an adjective in Japanese, so a more literal translation is likable or lovable. Still, it usually sounds more natural to translate it as a verb in English.
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:
Who do you like more than anyone? Your friend Sue. If you know someone named Sue, pretend you like her. If you don't, think of a famous person you know named Sue and use her, pretending you're good friends that like each other a lot.
