引き出す
ひきだす
- middle-high (nakadaka): falls after mora 3
How to read it: a line over a kana means the voice is high there, and ↓ marks where it drops. A kana with no line is low. With no ↓ the pitch stays high to the end and does not drop even on a following particle (が, は).
to pull out, to take out, to withdraw
Hikidasu is hiki, the stem of 引く (hiku, “to pull”), plus 出す (dasu, “to take out”).
