余所

よそ

  • tail-high (odaka): falls after mora 2

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).

another place, somewhere else, strange parts

JLPT N2Commonnoun (common) (futsuumeishi)nouns which may take the genitive case particle 'no'
