登る: climb. The Japanese verb '登る (のぼる)' means 'to climb'. It is used to describe the action of ascending or moving upward, such as climbing a mountain, stairs, or a ladder. This verb can also be used metaphorically to describe rising in status or rank. For example: I climbed the mountain「山に登った」(やまにのぼった). He climbed the stairs quickly「彼は階段を速く登った」(かれはかいだんをはやくのぼった). The sun climbed above the horizon「太陽が地平線の上に登った」(たいようがちへいせんのうえにのぼった). Note that '登る' is often used for physical climbing, while other verbs like '上がる (あがる)' may be used for more general upward movement.
