Meaning

Primary

Friend

Word Type

noun

Explanation

A person who is a friend is just that, a friend!

Reading

ゆうじん

Explanation

This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. Since 人 has two on'yomi readings, here's a mnemonic to help you remember which one to use:

All your friends are youths in jeans (ゆうじん)! Every single one. If any of your friends is not a youth in jeans, they're simply not your friend, I'm afraid.
