Example Word

進む: advance or progress. The Japanese verb '進む (すすむ)' primarily means 'to advance' or 'to progress'. It is used to describe forward movement, whether physical, such as moving ahead in space, or metaphorical, such as making progress in a project or situation.

Additionally, '進む' can also imply moving forward in time or making a decision, as in: Time advances quickly「時間は早く進む」(じかんははやくすすむ). He decided to proceed with the plan「彼はその計画を進めることにした」(かれはそのけいかくをすすめることにした).
