Practice Question

🎉 Explanation

English Explanation

しゅうかく is the standard on'yomi. 収 (シュウ) means to gather or obtain, and 穫 (カク) means to harvest. じゅうかく misreads 収, しゅうがく incorrectly applies rendaku to 穫, and しゅうかくう adds an unnecessary prolonged vowel. This term signifies the act of harvesting crops or gathering fruits from plants. It can also metaphorically refer to the results or gains obtained from efforts.

日本語解説

しゅうかくは標準的な音読みです。収は「取り入れる」、穫は「刈り取る」の意味。作物を採集すること、またはその成果を指します。じゅうかくは収の誤読、しゅうがくは穫の連濁誤りです。
