Example Word
脚: leg. The Japanese noun '脚 (あし)' primarily means 'leg'. It refers to the lower limb of the body, used for standing and walking. This word can be used to describe the legs of humans, animals, or even furniture. For example: my leg hurts「脚が痛い」(あしがいたい). The table has four legs「そのテーブルは脚が四本ある」(そのテーブルはあしがよんほんある). In some contexts, '脚' can also refer to the lower part of an object, such as the legs of a chair or table, but this is still closely related to the primary meaning of 'leg'.
