    Example Word

    手首: wrist. The Japanese noun '手首 (てくび)' refers to the 'wrist', the joint connecting the hand to the forearm. It is commonly used in everyday conversations and medical contexts. For example: My wrist hurts「手首が痛い」(てくびがいたい). She wore a bracelet on her wrist「彼女は手首にブレスレットをしていた」(かのじょはてくびにぶれすれっとをしていた). The word is straightforward and does not carry additional meanings or nuances beyond its literal definition.
