You must learn the on reading and the kun reading for each kanji. Usually the kanji reads with on reading when compound of kanjis, and kun when is "alone" in the word, you can see that in the examples. So in case in test appears a word that isn't in the lesson you can guess what is the correct option, although there is some exepctions of that rule.
so how do you read kanji when its mixed with hiragana.- When mixed with hiragana usually their reading is kun reading. Is equivalent to be alone: there isn't another kanji in the word.
Example: 食べる＝たべる--> here the kun reading of 食. 食事＝しょくじ--> here the on reading.
青い、暗い、暑い、冷たい… those are adjectives-i and they read with its kun reading.
食べた、食べない、食べます、食べませんでした、食べてください、食べたくない… those are some conjugations of kanji "eat", all reads in kun. In this site you will usually find verbs in "infinitive" form.
This is from starting. As I said before, there are some exceptions and step by step you will find that exceptions and which reading is the correct, because as you must have seen, there are kanji with several kun and on readings, like: 日曜日, first 日 is "nichi" and second "bi".
- Wait so they can change?🤦🏽♂️
- And so are you saying I need to learn all the examples ? Instead of the kunyomi and onyomi
- Ok so i think i get it now. So i need to learn the onyomi and kunyomi readings for all the kanji and in the quiz it will give me examples of ethier one right?
- Correct. The examples given aren't all the words that can appear at the tests. So you must learn all the readings and in the quiz if a new word appears you can guess if it's reading is kun or on by the tips I mentioned before.
- Ok thanks bro
