demand for surrender

Practice Question

🎉 Explanation

English Explanation

The correct reading is こうふくかんこく, using the standard On'yomi for all kanji. 勧 (かん) does not become がん through rendaku, and 伏 (ふく) is not ぶく. 告 (こく) should not be read as よく. It means a demand for surrender or an ultimatum.

日本語解説

正しい読みは「こうふくかんこく」で、全ての漢字が音読みです。勧(かん)をがん、伏(ふく)をぶく、告(こく)をよく、と誤読する例がありますが、これらは間違いです。相手に降伏を促す勧告や最後通告を意味します。
