野 | 火 |
Grade: 2 | Grade: 1 |
jukujikun |
Compound of 火 (ho, “fire”) + 退く (soku, “to push away, to make distant”).[1]
The kun'yomi for 火 is usually hi, but it can appear as ho or fu, particularly in older compounds.[1]
The soku changes to soke due to conjugation of the verb. Grammatically, the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “continuative or stem form”) of soki was used for intransitive senses, and the stem form of soke was used for the transitive senses.[1]
The kanji 野火 are an example of jukujikun.
