    Example Word

    履く: wear. The Japanese verb '履く (はく)' specifically means 'to wear' but is used exclusively for items worn on the lower body, such as pants, skirts, or shoes. It is important to note that this verb is not used for clothing items worn on the upper body, like shirts or jackets. For example: I wear shoes「靴を履く」(くつをはく). She wears a skirt「彼女はスカートを履く」(かのじょはスカートをはく). The verb '履く' is commonly used in daily conversations when discussing attire, and it is essential to use it correctly to avoid confusion with other verbs like '着る (きる)', which is used for upper body clothing.
