山腹

さんぷく

  • flat (heiban)

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).

hillside, mountainside

JLPT N1noun (common) (futsuumeishi)
