Example Word

座る: sit. The Japanese verb '座る (すわる)' means 'to sit'. It is used to describe the action of taking a seated position. This verb is commonly used in everyday situations, such as sitting on a chair, the floor, or any surface. For example: Please sit down「どうぞ座ってください」(どうぞすわってください). I sat on the bench「ベンチに座った」(ベンチにすわった). The verb can also be used in more formal or polite contexts, such as '座ってください (すわってください)' (Please have a seat). It is important to note that '座る' is an intransitive verb, meaning it does not take a direct object.
