🎉 Explanation

English Explanation

The correct reading へんせつ uses both Kanji's On'yomi. 変 (ヘン) as in 変化, 節 (セツ) as in 節約. へんねん, へんし, へんぶ are incorrect as 節 does not have these readings. 節 in this context refers to one's principles or integrity. It means to change one's attitude, principles, or loyalty, often implying a betrayal or fickleness.

日本語解説

正しい読み「へんせつ」は両方とも音読みです。変(ヘン)は変化、節(セツ)は節約などで使われます。へんねん、へんし、へんぶはいずれも節の誤読です。節には節義や主義という意味があります。主義主張や態度、あるいは忠誠心を翻すこと、裏切ることを指します。
