干す
干す در ۳۰ ثانیه
- Hosu means to hang items (like laundry) out to dry using air or sunlight.
- It is a transitive verb (requires 'o') and is a Group 1 (Godan) verb.
- Culturally, it's essential for laundry, futons, and traditional dried foods like shiitake.
- Metaphorically, it can mean to sideline or blacklist someone in a social/professional setting.
The Japanese verb 干す (hosu) is a foundational term in daily Japanese life, primarily meaning 'to hang something out to dry' or 'to air out.' At its core, it describes the intentional act of exposing an object—most commonly laundry, food, or wet items—to the air or sunlight to remove moisture. This verb is classified as a transitive verb (他動詞), meaning it requires a direct object: you dry something. In the context of a Japanese household, this word is inseparable from the image of a sunny balcony filled with clothes, as mechanical dryers are less common in Japan than in many Western countries.
- Daily Domestic Usage
- The most frequent use of 'hosu' is with laundry (洗濯物 - sentakumono). In Japan, the weather forecast often includes a 'laundry index' (洗濯指数), telling people if it is a good day to 'hosu' their clothes. It is not just about clothes, though; Japanese people frequently 'hosu' their heavy floor mattresses (布団 - futon) to keep them fluffy and free of mold.
- Culinary Context
- Beyond laundry, 'hosu' is essential in food preservation. Traditional Japanese cuisine (Washoku) relies heavily on dried ingredients. When someone dries fish to make 'himono' or dries persimmons to make 'shibugaki,' they are performing the action of 'hosu.' This nuances the word toward a sense of preparation and preservation through nature's elements.
天気がいいから、外に洗濯物を干そう。
(The weather is nice, so let's hang the laundry outside.)
Interestingly, 'hosu' also has a figurative side. In the world of entertainment or corporate politics, if someone is 'hosareru' (the passive form), it means they are being 'dried out' or sidelined. Just as a plant withers without water, a person who is 'hosareru' is deprived of work or social interaction, effectively being 'blacklisted' or benched. This shows the word's versatility from a simple chore to a powerful social metaphor.
In summary, 'hosu' is about the transformation of something wet or damp into something dry and usable through exposure. Whether you are dealing with a wet towel, a batch of seaweed, or a glass of sake (where it means to drain the cup), 'hosu' implies the removal of liquid to reach a desired state of dryness or emptiness.
Using 干す (hosu) correctly involves understanding its status as a Godan verb (Group 1) and its relationship with its objects. Since it is a transitive verb, you will almost always see the particle を (o) preceding it. The actor is the one performing the drying action, and the object is what is being dried.
- Grammatical Conjugation
- As a Godan verb ending in 'su', it follows standard patterns: Hoshimasu (polite), Hosanai (negative), Hoshita (past), and Hoshite (te-form). The te-form is particularly common when giving instructions or describing a sequence of chores: 'Sentakumono o hoshite kara, kaimono ni ikimasu' (After hanging the laundry, I will go shopping).
梅干しを作るために、梅を三日間干します。
(To make pickled plums, we dry the plums for three days.)
One of the most important distinctions to make is between 干す (hosu) and 乾かす (kawakasu). While both mean 'to dry,' 'hosu' specifically implies hanging something out or airing it out, often in the sun. You wouldn't usually use 'hosu' for a hair dryer (you'd use kawakasu), but you would use 'hosu' for a towel on a clothesline. 'Hosu' carries a nuance of 'placing something in a specific spot so nature can dry it.'
Another advanced usage is the causative-passive form 干される (hosareru). This is common in news headlines. For example, 'Kanojo wa gyoukai kara hosareta' means 'She was dried out (pushed out/blacklisted) from the industry.' This suggests that the industry 'dried up' her opportunities. Understanding these variations allows you to transition from basic A2 laundry talk to understanding complex social commentary in Japanese media.
You will encounter 干す (hosu) in a variety of settings, ranging from the mundane to the metaphorical. In a Japanese home, it is a daily keyword. If you stay with a host family or live in Japan, you will hear it every morning when the sun comes out. It is part of the 'household rhythm' that defines Japanese domesticity.
- In the Home
- Parents will tell children: 'Nureta taoru o chanto hoshite!' (Hang up your wet towel properly!). On sunny days, neighbors might exchange greetings like 'Kyou wa futon-hoshi biyori desu ne' (It's a perfect day for airing out futons, isn't it?).
- Weather Forecasts
- Weather reporters use the word 'hosu' indirectly through terms like 'sentakumono-hoshi' (laundry hanging). They might say, 'Gogo kara ame ga furu no de, hayame ni hoshimashou' (It will rain from the afternoon, so let's hang [the laundry] out early).
「あ、雨だ!洗濯物を干したままだった!」
("Oh, rain! I left the laundry hanging out!")
In the culinary world, you'll see this word on packaging. 'Hoshi-shiitake' (dried shiitake mushrooms) or 'Hoshi-imo' (dried sweet potatoes) are common snacks. The word 'hosu' here implies a concentrated flavor and a traditional method of preparation. When you visit a coastal town, you will see 'ika' (squid) being 'hosu-ed' on rotating racks, a sight known as 'ika-no-kaikenzushi.'
Finally, in literature and songs, 'hosu' can be used poetically. Drying tears (namida o hosu) or drying a pond (ike o hosu) are images used to describe the end of sorrow or a drastic change in environment. Whether it's the physical act of hanging a shirt or the social act of excluding a rival, 'hosu' is a word that permeates the Japanese experience.
While 干す (hosu) is relatively straightforward, English speakers often make mistakes regarding its transitivity and its specific nuances compared to other 'drying' verbs. The most common error is confusing it with its intransitive counterpart or with more general verbs for drying.
- Mistake 1: Hosu vs. Kawaku
- 'Hosu' is something YOU do to an object. 'Kawaku' (乾く) is what happens to the object. You cannot say 'Sentakumono ga hoshita' to mean 'The laundry dried.' You must say 'Sentakumono ga kawaita.' Conversely, you don't 'kawaku' the laundry; you 'hosu' it or 'kawakasu' it.
- Mistake 2: Overusing it for all drying
- Don't use 'hosu' for drying your hands with a towel or drying dishes with a cloth. For hands, use 'fuku' (wipe/dry by wiping). For dishes, use 'fuku' or 'kawakasu.' 'Hosu' almost always implies hanging something up or spreading it out to let air/sun do the work.
❌ 手を干す。
✅ 手を拭く (fuku).
(You don't 'hang' your hands to dry; you wipe them.)
Another mistake involves the kanji. '干' (hosu) looks very similar to '千' (sen - thousand) and '平' (hei - flat). Be careful not to misread '干物' (himono - dried fish) as something else. Also, remember that 'hosu' is a Godan verb. Some learners mistakenly treat it as an Ichidan verb and say 'hoseru' instead of 'hoshimasu' for the polite form.
Lastly, avoid using 'hosu' when you mean 'to drain' in a biological sense (like dehydration). For a person being thirsty or dehydrated, use 'nodo ga kawaku' (throat is dry). 'Hosu' is an external, intentional action applied to objects or figurative social situations.
To truly master 干す (hosu), it helps to compare it with other verbs in the 'drying' and 'airing' family. Japanese has several specific words for these actions depending on the method and the object.
- 干す (Hosu) vs. 乾かす (Kawakasu)
- 'Hosu' is specifically about hanging/airing (usually outdoors). 'Kawakasu' is the general transitive verb for 'to dry' something. You use 'kawakasu' for hair dryers, heaters, or just making something not wet. If you use a machine dryer, you 'kawakasu' the clothes; you don't 'hosu' them inside a machine.
- 晒す (Sarasu)
- 'Sarasu' means to expose to the elements (sun, wind, or public eye). While 'hosu' is for drying, 'sarasu' is often used when the exposure itself is the goal, like bleaching cloth in the sun or exposing someone's secrets (shittai o sarasu).
- 拭く (Fuku)
- As mentioned, 'fuku' means to wipe. If you use a towel to dry a table or your body, you are 'fuku-ing,' not 'hosu-ing.' 'Hosu' requires the object to be left alone to dry over time.
ドライヤーで髪を乾かす。
(Dry hair with a hair dryer - use 'kawakasu' here.)
There is also 陰干し (kageboshi), which means drying something in the shade. Some delicate clothes shouldn't be 'hosu' in direct sunlight, so you 'kageboshi' them. This is a common instruction on Japanese clothing labels. Knowing these distinctions prevents you from sounding like you're trying to hang your hair on a clothesline!
By understanding that 'hosu' is specifically about the 'hanging/airing' method, you can accurately describe your daily chores and understand the cultural importance of sun-drying in Japan.

Particle Choice
Always use 'を' (o) for the thing you are drying. Use 'に' (ni) for the place you are hanging it (e.g., balcony).

Food Labels
Look for the kanji '干' on food labels in Japanese supermarkets. It tells you the food is dried and will have a long shelf life.
Metaphorical Warning
Be careful using 'hosu' for people. Saying 'I will hosu him' sounds like you are going to bully or ignore him.

ریشه کلمه
Derived from the Old Japanese word 'hosu'. The kanji '干' originally depicted a wooden weapon or a shield, but over time it came to represent the idea of drying or parching, possibly related to the sun's harshness on a battlefield.
معنای اصلی: To dry by exposure to heat or air.
Japonicبافت فرهنگی
Be careful when using the passive 'hosareru' regarding people, as it implies a very negative social situation or bullying.
Westerners often use electric dryers, so the concept of 'hanging laundry' is often associated with being eco-friendly or rural life, whereas in Japan it is the urban norm.

Summary
Mastering '干す' (hosu) is vital for daily life in Japan. While its primary use is for laundry ('sentakumono o hosu'), its figurative use for social exclusion ('hosareru') is equally important in adult conversation.
- Hosu means to hang items (like laundry) out to dry using air or sunlight.
- It is a transitive verb (requires 'o') and is a Group 1 (Godan) verb.
- Culturally, it's essential for laundry, futons, and traditional dried foods like shiitake.
- Metaphorically, it can mean to sideline or blacklist someone in a social/professional setting.
Particle Choice
Always use 'を' (o) for the thing you are drying. Use 'に' (ni) for the place you are hanging it (e.g., balcony).
Futon Care
In Japan, drying your futon ('futon-hoshi') is essential to prevent mold in the humid climate. Don't forget to hit it with a 'futon-tataki' (beater)!
Food Labels
Look for the kanji '干' on food labels in Japanese supermarkets. It tells you the food is dried and will have a long shelf life.
Metaphorical Warning
Be careful using 'hosu' for people. Saying 'I will hosu him' sounds like you are going to bully or ignore him.
مثال
洗濯物をベランダに干す。
