To Humiliate
To Disgrace
transitive verb, ichidan verb
Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb. The kanji itself means humiliate so the verb vocab version is to humiliate or to disgrace.
This is a formal word to describe an action that damages someone's reputation or makes them feel deeply ashamed, often in public situations. In some contexts, this can also imply sexual assault, so it should be used with caution.
Remember the word 恥ずかしい? It has the same reading as this one, and a similar meaning as well.
みんなの前で私の事を辱めるのが、どうしてそんなに面白いんですか？
Why do you find it so amusing to humiliate me in front of everyone?
