2025/09/26

Hello everyone,
Today, we would like to introduce a helpful video for learning Japanese.

This time, it’s about 「生」- the kanji with the most readings in Japanese.
How many readings of 「生」 do you know?
Let’s check it out in the video.

Let’s read kanji! What are the readings of 「生」?

It is said that 「生」 has more than 150 readings.
By the way, the kanji with the opposite meaning of 「生」, which is 「死」, has only one reading: 「し」.
It’s interesting that both the meaning and the number of readings are completely opposite!
