Example Word
牛肉: beef. The Japanese noun '牛肉 (ぎゅうにく)' refers to 'beef', which is the meat from cattle. This term is commonly used in culinary contexts, such as when ordering or discussing dishes that include beef. For example: I ate beef for dinner「夕食に牛肉を食べた」(ゆうしょくにぎゅうにくをたべた). This restaurant serves delicious beef「このレストランは美味しい牛肉を出す」(このレストランはおいしいぎゅうにくをだす). It's important to note that '牛肉' specifically refers to beef, distinguishing it from other types of meat like pork (豚肉, ぶたにく) or chicken (鶏肉, とりにく).
