JLPT N1 • KANJI

fundraising (for religious purposes)

Practice Question

🎉 Explanation

English Explanation

勧進 (かんじん) uses both characters with their On'yomi. 勧 (カン) means 'recommend' or 'encourage,' and 進 (ジン) means 'advance' or 'proceed.' Incorrect readings like すすめる (Kun'yomi for 勧) or けんじん misinterpret 勧. It primarily refers to 'fundraising for religious purposes' or 'solicitation,' encouraging donations for temples or statues.

日本語解説

勧進(かんじん)は両方とも音読みです。勧(カン)は「勧める」、進(ジン)は「進む」を意味します。すすめるや、けんじんは誤り。寺社建立などの目的で「寄付を募り、説いて回ること」を指します。
