    出入り口: entrance. The Japanese noun '出入り口 (でいりぐち)' refers to an 'entrance' or 'exit'. It is commonly used to denote a point of entry or exit in buildings, rooms, or other enclosed spaces. The word combines the characters for 'exit' (出) and 'entrance' (入), emphasizing its dual function. For example: Please use the main entrance「メインの出入り口を使ってください」(めいんのでいりぐちをつかってください). The emergency exit is over there「非常口はあそこです」(ひじょうぐちはあそこです). Note that while '出入り口' can refer to both entrances and exits, context usually clarifies its specific meaning.

    乳房: breast. The Japanese noun '乳房 (ちぶさ)' refers to the 'breast' of a person or animal. It is a somewhat formal or literary term and is less commonly used in everyday conversation compared to '胸 (むね)' or 'おっぱい'. The word can be used in both medical and poetic contexts. For example: The mother fed her baby with her breast「母親は乳房で赤ちゃんに授乳した」(ははおやはちぶさであかちゃんにじゅにゅうした). The sculpture depicted a woman with exposed breasts「その彫刻は乳房を露わにした女性を描いていた」(そのちょうこくはちぶさをあらわにしたじょせいをえがいていた). Note that this term is neutral in tone but may carry a more serious or clinical nuance depending on the context.

    柔軟: flexible. The Japanese adjective '柔軟 (じゅうなん)' means 'flexible'. It is used to describe something that can bend or adapt easily without breaking. This can refer to physical objects, such as materials, or abstract concepts, like thinking or attitudes. For example: She has a flexible mind「彼女は柔軟な考え方を持っている」(かのじょはじゅうなんなかんがえかたをもっている). This rubber is very flexible「このゴムはとても柔軟だ」(このゴムはとてもじゅうなんだ). The word can also imply adaptability or openness to change, as in '柔軟な対応 (じゅうなんなたいおう) (flexible response)'.
