4 一気 One Breath

  • Go to
  • Meaning
  • Reading
  • Context
  • Kanji Composition

Meaning

Primary

One Breath

Alternatives

One Go, One Sitting

Word Type

adverb

Explanation

It's weird to think of having one energy. But, what gives you energy? You do it one time every couple of seconds. That would be taking breaths. So, "one energy" is one breath.

Reading

いっき

Explanation

The reading is the same as the ones you learned with the individual kanji, though いち from 一 is shortened to いっ.

Context
