الشرح 養鶏 in your Level:

At the A1 level, you don't need to use the word '養鶏' (yōkei) yourself, but it is helpful to recognize it if you see it on food packaging. For now, you should focus on the basic word for chicken, which is 'にわとり' (niwatori). Think of '養鶏' as the 'grown-up' or 'business' version of 'niwatori'. If you go to a Japanese supermarket, you might see this word on a carton of eggs. It just means the eggs came from a chicken farm. At this stage, just remember that the first part 'yō' means 'to raise' and the second part 'kei' is a fancy way to say 'chicken'. You can imagine a farmer feeding a group of chickens to help you remember the meaning. Don't worry about the kanji yet; just try to recognize the sound 'yōkei' when someone talks about where eggs come from. You might hear it in a simple sentence like 'This is a yōkei farm.' Even at A1, knowing that Japanese has different words for 'pet chickens' and 'industrial chicken farming' helps you understand how the language works. It shows that Japanese often uses Chinese-style words (Kango) for official things and Japanese-style words (Wago) for everyday things.

At the A2 level, you are starting to learn more about daily life and occupations. '養鶏' (yōkei) is a useful word to know when you are talking about what people do for a living in the countryside. You might say 'My uncle is a yōkeika' (poultry farmer). You should begin to recognize the kanji: 養 (to raise) and 鶏 (chicken). A good way to remember 養 is that it looks a bit like the kanji for sheep (羊) on top of food (食). For 鶏, notice the 'bird' radical (鳥) on the right side. This tells you it's a type of bird. In A2 conversations, you might describe a trip to the countryside and mention seeing a 'yōkeijō' (poultry farm). You can use simple grammar like '養鶏場へ行きました' (I went to a poultry farm). It's also a good time to learn that 'yō' is used in other farming words like 'yōton' (pigs). This pattern helps you expand your vocabulary quickly. Instead of learning 100 separate words, you learn the system of how Japanese builds words for different types of farming. Remember, 'yōkei' is a noun, so you treat it like any other object in your sentences.

As a B1 learner, you should be able to use '養鶏' (yōkei) in discussions about the environment, the economy, or food production. This is the level where you move beyond 'I like chicken' to 'I am interested in the poultry industry'. You should understand that '養鶏' is a formal term used in news reports and articles. For example, if there is a news story about the price of eggs rising, the reporter will definitely use the word '養鶏'. You should be able to use it with '営む' (itonamu - to run a business) or as part of compound nouns like '養鶏業者' (yōkei gyōsha - poultry businessman). At B1, you should also be aware of the social context, such as the debate between 'cage farming' and 'cage-free farming' (平飼い養鶏 - hiraga-i yōkei). Being able to use these specific terms makes your Japanese sound much more professional and precise. You should also be careful not to confuse 'yōkei' (poultry) with 'yōgyo' (fish farming), which is common in Japan's coastal areas. Practice using '養鶏' in sentences that explain the importance of agriculture in certain prefectures, like 'In Chiba, poultry farming is very popular.'

At the B2 level, you should have a firm grasp of '養鶏' (yōkei) and be able to use it in complex discussions about sustainability, disease control, and international trade. You should understand the nuances of why '養鶏' is used instead of '鶏の飼育' in a professional setting. For example, in a debate about food self-sufficiency in Japan, you might discuss the challenges facing the '養鶏業界' (yōkei gyōkai - poultry industry), such as the rising cost of imported feed or the impact of avian influenza. You should also be comfortable with related technical terms like '採卵鶏' (sairankei - egg-laying hens) and 'ブロイラー' (buroiraa - broilers for meat). At this level, your kanji knowledge should be deep enough to recognize '養' in various contexts like '養護' (protection/nursing) or '養成' (training/development), and '鶏' in words like '鶏卵' (keiran - chicken egg). You should be able to read and write these characters without difficulty. In writing, you might use '養鶏' to analyze the impact of industrialization on rural Japanese communities. Your ability to use such specific vocabulary allows you to engage with native-level materials like agricultural journals or economic news segments.

At the C1 level, you are expected to use '養鶏' (yōkei) with the precision of a native speaker. This involves understanding the legal and regulatory frameworks surrounding the industry. You might discuss '養鶏振興法' (Poultry Promotion Law) or the specific hygiene standards (HACCP) required at a '養鶏場'. You should be able to explain the historical development of '養鶏' in Japan, from small backyard operations to the highly automated systems of today. Your vocabulary should include idiomatic or highly specific expressions related to the field. Furthermore, you should be able to navigate the ethical dimensions of '養鶏', such as the move toward 'アニマルウェルフェア' (animal welfare) and how it affects the '養鶏経営' (poultry management). You should be able to synthesize information from various sources—such as government statistics on '養鶏の飼養羽数' (number of poultry birds raised)—and present a coherent argument or report. At this level, '養鶏' is not just a vocabulary word; it is a concept that you can manipulate to discuss broader themes of food technology, environmental impact, and consumer behavior in modern Japan.

At the C2 level, your mastery of '養鶏' (yōkei) is total. You can engage in high-level academic or professional discourse regarding the genomic selection in '養鶏', the epidemiology of diseases within high-density poultry environments, or the global supply chain logistics of the '養鶏産業'. You understand the subtle differences in tone when '養鶏' is used in a political speech versus a scientific paper. You are also aware of the cultural and historical weight of the word, including how '養鶏' has been portrayed in Japanese literature or film as a symbol of rural life or industrial progress. You can use the word in sophisticated puns or metaphors if the context allows. Your writing should demonstrate a command of the most formal and technical registers, using '養鶏' alongside other advanced kanji compounds like '循環型養鶏' (circular poultry farming) or '高度化養鶏' (advanced/high-tech poultry farming). You should be able to critique government policies regarding the '養鶏' sector and propose nuanced solutions to complex problems like labor shortages in the industry. At this stage, you are not just a learner; you are a proficient user who can contribute to the field in Japanese.

養鶏 في 30 ثانية

養鶏 (Yōkei) means poultry farming, specifically for chickens.
It is a formal, industrial term used in business and news.
Commonly seen in terms like 養鶏場 (poultry farm) and 養鶏家 (poultry farmer).
Crucial for discussing Japan's food industry and avian health issues.

The Japanese word 養鶏 (ようけい) is a specialized noun that refers to the practice of poultry farming, specifically the raising and breeding of chickens for their eggs or meat. While the term technically encompasses the rearing of various fowl, in modern Japanese society and industry, it is almost exclusively used in the context of the chicken industry. The word is composed of two kanji characters: 養 (yō), meaning to nurture, rear, or support, and 鶏 (kei/niwatori), meaning chicken. Together, they form a technical and formal term used in agriculture, economics, and environmental discussions. Unlike the more casual phrase 鶏を飼う (niwatori o kau), which simply means 'to keep chickens' (often as a hobby or small-scale activity), 養鶏 implies a professional or industrial scale of production.

Industry Classification: In the Japanese agricultural sector, 養鶏 is categorized under 畜産 (chikusan), which means livestock industry. It is further divided into egg production (採卵養鶏 - sairan yōkei) and meat production (ブロイラー養鶏 - buroiraa yōkei).
Formal Usage: You will encounter this word in official government reports from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF), in news segments regarding food prices, and in academic papers discussing sustainable farming practices.

この地域は古くから養鶏が盛んで、新鮮な卵が特産品です。
(This region has been active in poultry farming since ancient times, and fresh eggs are its specialty.)

Understanding 養鶏 is crucial for anyone interested in Japan's food security and rural economy. Japan has a very high consumption of eggs per capita, and the efficiency of the 養鶏 industry is a frequent topic of public interest, especially when bird flu outbreaks occur. In such cases, the media uses terms like 養鶏場 (yōkeijō - poultry farm) and 養鶏業者 (yōkei gyōsha - poultry farmer/business) constantly. The word carries a nuance of 'management' and 'production' rather than just 'animal care'.

祖父は退職後、小規模な養鶏ビジネスを始めました。
(After retiring, my grandfather started a small-scale poultry business.)

Etymological Breakdown: The character 養 (yō) comes from the image of 'sheep' (羊) over 'food/eat' (食), originally implying the feeding of livestock. The character 鶏 (kei) is the formal kanji for niwatori (chicken), distinct from the more generic 鳥 (tori) for bird.

In summary, use 養鶏 when discussing the industry, the business, or the systematic practice of raising chickens. It is the bridge between the biology of the bird and the economics of the food supply.

Using 養鶏 effectively requires understanding its role as a noun that can also function as a verb when paired with する (suru), though '養鶏を営む' (yōkei o itonamu - to run a poultry business) is more common in formal writing. Because it is a Sino-Japanese (Kango) word, it sounds professional and objective. You will rarely hear a child use this word; they would likely say 'にわとりをそだてる' (niwatori o sodateru). In adult conversation, however, 養鶏 is the standard term for describing the occupation or the industry sector.

養鶏場での衛生管理は、感染症を防ぐために非常に重要です。
(Sanitary management at poultry farms is extremely important for preventing infectious diseases.)

When constructing sentences, 養鶏 often appears at the beginning of compound nouns. For example, 養鶏業 (yōkeigyō - the poultry industry), 養鶏家 (yōkeika - a poultry farmer), and 養鶏設備 (yōkeisetsubi - poultry equipment). It is also frequently used with verbs like 盛ん (sakan - flourishing/popular) or 衰退する (suitai suru - to decline) to describe the economic health of a region's farming sector.

Sentence Pattern: Industry Health: [Place] + では + 養鶏 + が盛んです。 (Poultry farming is thriving in [Place].)
Sentence Pattern: Occupation: 彼は代々 + 養鶏 + を営んでいる。 (He has been running a poultry farm for generations.)

Another common usage is in the context of animal welfare (アニマルウェルフェア). Recent years have seen discussions about 平飼い養鶏 (hiraga-i yōkei), which refers to cage-free poultry farming. This specific phrase is becoming more common in supermarkets and high-end restaurants as consumers become more conscious of how their food is produced. Using 養鶏 in these contexts shows a high level of linguistic sophistication and topical awareness.

最近では、アニマルウェルフェアに配慮した養鶏が注目されています。
(Recently, poultry farming that considers animal welfare has been attracting attention.)

While 養鶏 might seem like a niche term, it is surprisingly prevalent in daily Japanese life, provided you are paying attention to the right channels. The most common place to hear it is on the NHK News or other major broadcasting networks. During the winter months, Japan often faces outbreaks of avian influenza (鳥インフルエンザ). During these times, the word 養鶏 appears in almost every news cycle, usually in phrases like '養鶏場での殺処分' (culling at poultry farms) or '養鶏農家への支援' (support for poultry farmers).

ニュース：鳥インフルエンザの影響で、全国の養鶏場が警戒を強めています。
(News: Due to the impact of bird flu, poultry farms nationwide are increasing their vigilance.)

You will also hear this word in documentaries about rural revitalization (地方創生). Many young people in Japan are moving back to the countryside to start sustainable businesses, and 養鶏 is a popular choice because it requires less land than cattle farming. In these programs, you'll hear interviews with entrepreneurs talking about their '養鶏にかける想い' (passion for poultry farming).

Supermarkets and Food Labels: When buying eggs, look for labels that say 〇〇養鶏場直送 (Directly from XX Poultry Farm). This is a marketing term used to emphasize freshness and traceability.
Economic Reports: Discussions about the '物価の優等生' (the star of price stability) - a nickname for eggs in Japan - often involve analysis of the 養鶏 costs, such as feed (飼料) prices.

Finally, if you travel through agricultural prefectures like Chiba, Ibaraki, or Kagoshima, you will see large signs on the side of the road pointing toward '〇〇養鶏'. These signs serve as landmarks for the local industry. Hearing and seeing the word in these real-world contexts helps solidify the connection between the kanji and the physical reality of the industry.

For English speakers learning Japanese, the most common mistake with 養鶏 is using it too broadly or confusing it with similar-sounding agricultural terms. A frequent error is trying to apply the '養' (yō) prefix to animals it doesn't fit with. For example, while 養鶏 (poultry) and 養豚 (pig farming) are correct, you cannot say '養牛' for cattle farming; the correct term is 畜産 (chikusan) or 肉牛飼育 (nikugyū shiiku). This inconsistency in how '養' is applied can be frustrating but is essential to master for natural-sounding Japanese.

❌ 彼は牛の養鶏をしています。
✅ 彼は牛の畜産をしています。
(Mistake: He does cattle poultry farming. Correct: He does cattle livestock farming.)

Another mistake is confusing 養鶏 (the industry) with 鶏肉 (the meat). If you want to say 'I like eating chicken,' you should never use 養鶏. 養鶏 is the process, not the product. Similarly, learners often confuse 養鶏 (yōkei) with 養魚 (yōgyo - fish farming). While they sound similar, the second kanji makes a world of difference. Always double-check that you are using 鶏 (chicken) and not 魚 (fish) or 豚 (pig).

Pronunciation Pitfall: The long 'ō' sound in 'yō' (よう) is critical. Shortening it to 'yokei' (よけい) changes the word entirely to '余計' (extra/unnecessary), which would lead to very confusing sentences!
Register Mismatch: Using '養鶏' in a very casual setting, like telling a friend about your pet chicken, sounds overly clinical. Use '鶏を飼っている' (niwatori o katte iru) instead.

Lastly, be careful with the word 養鶏場 (yōkeijō). Some learners accidentally say 養鶏所 (yōkeijo). While '-jo' and '-jō' both mean 'place', the standard suffix for a farm or plant in this context is almost always '場' (jō).

To truly master 養鶏, it is helpful to compare it with other terms in the agricultural family. Japanese has a very specific vocabulary for different types of farming, and using the right one is key to sounding like a native speaker. The most direct comparison is with 畜産 (chikusan), which is the umbrella term for all livestock farming. 養鶏 is a sub-category of 畜産.

養鶏 (Yōkei) vs. 鶏飼育 (Niwa-tori Shi-iku): '養鶏' is the formal/industrial term. '鶏飼育' is a more descriptive, slightly less formal way to say 'chicken rearing'. You use '養鶏' for the business and '飼育' for the act of caring for the birds.
養鶏 (Yōkei) vs. 養豚 (Yōton): '養豚' is pig farming. They share the same first kanji (養 - rear), making them easy to remember as a pair of industrial agricultural terms.
酪農 (Rakunō): This means dairy farming. It is completely different from '養鶏' because it focuses on milk production from cows or goats.

比較：
1. 彼は養鶏を営んでいます。(He runs a poultry business.)
2. 彼は庭で鶏を飼っています。(He keeps chickens in his garden.)

Another related term is 孵化 (fuka - hatching). In the 養鶏 industry, 孵化場 (fukajō - hatchery) is a crucial facility. Also, consider the distinction between 採卵 (sairan - egg collection) and 肥育 (hiiku - fattening for meat). Depending on the goal of the 養鶏 business, one of these terms will be the primary focus.

By understanding these nuances, you can navigate conversations about food, farming, and the economy with much greater precision. 養鶏 is not just a word for 'chickens'; it's a word for the entire ecosystem of their production.

How Formal Is It?

أخطاء شائعة

Using '養鶏' for cows. → 畜産 or 肉牛飼育
養鶏 is strictly for birds (specifically chickens). You cannot use it for mammals like cows.
Saying 'yokei' (short o) instead of 'yōkei'. → yōkei (long o)
Shortening the vowel changes the meaning to 'extra' or 'unnecessary', which makes no sense in a farming context.
Confusing 養鶏 with 鶏肉 (chicken meat). → 鶏肉が好きです
養鶏 is the business of raising chickens. You don't 'eat' 養鶏; you eat 鶏肉.
Using 養鶏 for a pet chicken. → 鶏を飼う
養鶏 is an industrial/business term. Using it for a pet sounds like you are managing a factory in your backyard.
Writing 養鳥 instead of 養鶏. → 養鶏
While 'bird' is 鳥, the specific term for the industry uses the kanji for 'chicken' (鶏).

نصائح

Mastering the 'Bird' Radical

The right side of 鶏 is the 'bird' radical (鳥). Learning this radical first makes it easier to remember many other bird-related kanji like 鳩 (pigeon) or 鴨 (duck).

Learn the 'Yō' Family

Group 養鶏 with 養豚 (pigs), 養殖 (aquaculture), and 養蜂 (beekeeping). They all follow the same pattern of 'Raising + Animal'.

Watch for Vowel Length

Listen carefully to the 'yō' in news reports. The long vowel distinguishes 'poultry' from 'extra' (yokei). Practice saying 'yō-u-ke-i' slowly.

Check Your Egg Cartons

Next time you are in Japan, look for '養鶏' on egg cartons. It's a great way to see the word in a real-world context.

Use with 'Itonamu'

Pairing 養鶏 with '営む' (itonamu) is the most natural way to say someone runs a poultry business. It sounds very professional.

Specify the Goal

If you want to be precise, use '採卵養鶏' for eggs and 'ブロイラー養鶏' for meat. Native speakers will be impressed by your knowledge.

Contextual Clues

If you see '養' followed by an unfamiliar kanji in an agricultural text, assume it's a type of farming. This helps with reading fluency.

The Sheep and the Bird

The first kanji has a sheep (羊), and the second has a bird (鳥). Imagine a sheep and a bird working together on a farm.

Stroke Order Matters

For 鶏, ensure you write the left side first, then the right side (鳥). Correct stroke order helps the character look balanced.

Discussing Trends

Use '養鶏' when talking about sustainability or food prices. It's a great topic for middle-level conversation practice.

تحدٍّ

Sino-Japanese (Kango)

السياق الثقافي

Be careful when discussing bird flu or culling (殺処分), as these are sensitive and tragic topics for farmers.

الأسئلة الشائعة

10 أسئلة

While the kanji 鶏 specifically means chicken, in a broad sense, 養鶏 can refer to other poultry like ducks or quail. However, in 99% of daily Japanese usage, it refers to chicken farming. For other birds, the term '家禽' (kakin) is more accurate.

City dwellers might not use it daily, but they see it on egg cartons and hear it on the news. It is a fundamental word for understanding where food comes from.

養鶏場 refers to the physical location (the farm/facility), while 養鶏農家 refers to the family or household that runs the poultry business.

You can say '有機養鶏' (yūki yōkei). This implies that the chickens are raised according to organic standards, often including organic feed and more space.

Yes, it can be used as '養鶏する', but '養鶏を営む' (yōkei o itonamu) or '養鶏に従事する' (yōkei ni jūji suru) are more natural in formal contexts.

The kanji 鶏 evolved from detailed drawings of birds with combs. While complex, it is essential for distinguishing between general birds (鳥) and domestic chickens.

It's better not to. For a pet, '鶏を飼っている' (niwatori o katte iru) is much more appropriate. 養鶏 sounds like you are running a business.

The primary products are eggs (卵 - tamago) and chicken meat (鶏肉 - toriniku). The industry is usually split into these two specialties.

Yes, they are linguistic 'siblings'. Both use the '養' (yō) character to denote the professional rearing of specific livestock.

'平飼い' (hiraga-i) means letting chickens roam on the ground rather than keeping them in cages. It's a key term in modern, welfare-conscious 養鶏.
