肺がん

Lung Cancer


Meaning

Lung Cancer

Word Type

noun

Explanation

肺 is lung, がん is "cancer," I suppose because you want it gone (がん) from you. That makes this word lung cancer, which, with all the smoking in Japan, happens a decent amount.


Reading

はいがん

Explanation

The reading is the same as what you learned with the kanji.
