At the A1 level, you should focus on the most basic physical use of '量る'. Think of it as the word you use when you are in the kitchen or looking at a scale. You don't need to worry about the complex kanji differences yet, but you should recognize that '量る' (hakaru) means 'to measure'. At this stage, you will mostly see it in the 'masu' form: '量ります' (hakarimasu). Common objects for this level include '砂糖' (satou - sugar), '塩' (shio - salt), and '体重' (taijuu - body weight). A simple sentence would be '砂糖を量ります' (I measure sugar). You might also see it in simple commands like '量ってください' (Please measure it). The goal at A1 is to associate the sound 'hakaru' with the action of weighing something on a scale. You should also start to notice that it is a transitive verb, which means it uses the particle 'を' (o) to connect to the object being measured. For example, '水を量ります' (I measure water). Even if you cannot write the kanji '量' yet, knowing that this specific 'hakaru' is for weight is a great start.
At the A2 level, you are expected to distinguish '量る' from other verbs pronounced 'hakaru'. This is the level where the kanji distinction becomes important. You should know that '量る' is specifically for weight and volume. You will encounter this word in more complex sentence structures, such as using the 'te-form' to connect actions: '重さを量って、箱に入れます' (Measure the weight and put it in the box). You should also be comfortable using tools with the particle 'で' (de), such as 'はかりで量る' (measure with a scale). At A2, you might also see the word used in recipes or simple instructions. You should understand the difference between '量る' (weight/volume) and '測る' (length/height). For instance, you '量る' your weight (taijuu) but '測る' your height (shinchou). You should also be able to use the potential form '量れる' (can measure) in simple contexts, like 'この秤で1キロまで量れます' (You can measure up to 1kg with this scale). This level is about building accuracy in usage and expanding the variety of objects you can measure.
At the B1 level, you should be able to use '量る' in a variety of social and semi-professional contexts. You should understand its use in the passive form '量られる' (is measured) and the causative form '量らせる' (make someone measure). For example, '郵便局で荷物の重さを量られました' (The weight of my luggage was measured at the post office). You should also be familiar with compound words and nouns derived from this verb, such as '計量' (keiryou - measurement/weighing) and '分量' (bunryou - quantity). At this stage, you should be able to explain the difference between '量る', '測る', and '計る' to someone else in simple Japanese. You will see '量る' in more formal texts, such as health reports or shipping policies. You should also start to recognize the figurative use of measurement, though it is less common for this specific kanji. Your focus should be on using the verb naturally in conversations about health, cooking, and shopping. For example, discussing the '量り売り' (selling by weight) system at a local market. You should also be able to use adverbs to describe the measurement, such as '正確に量る' (measure accurately) or '適当に量る' (measure roughly).
At the B2 level, you should have a firm grasp of '量る' and be able to use it in technical and abstract contexts. You should be comfortable with the noun '重量' (juuryou - weight) and how it relates to the verb '量る'. You will encounter this verb in scientific articles, industrial manuals, and more sophisticated literature. You should understand the nuance of using '量る' versus '計量する' (the more formal version). At this level, you might encounter the verb in philosophical or psychological contexts, such as '人の心を量る' (to measure/gauge a person's heart), although '推し量る' is more common. You should be able to handle complex grammar involving the verb, such as '量るべき' (should measure) or '量るほどではない' (not worth measuring). You should also be aware of the historical context of measurement units in Japan (like 'shaku' or 'kan') and how '量る' was used traditionally. Your writing should reflect the correct kanji choice 100% of the time, and you should be able to correct others' mistakes. You might also use the verb in discussions about logistics, economics (measuring quantities of goods), and chemistry.
At the C1 level, you are expected to use '量る' with the precision of a native speaker. You should understand the subtle nuances between '量る' and its synonyms in high-level literature and academic writing. You will encounter the verb in classical or archaic contexts where measurement was a central part of trade and governance. You should be able to use the verb in complex metaphorical expressions. For example, '利害を天秤にかけて量る' (to weigh the pros and cons on a balance scale). At this level, you should also be familiar with technical terms like '定量分析' (teiryou bunseki - quantitative analysis) and how the concept of '量る' forms the basis of these scientific methods. You should be able to discuss the ethics of measurement (e.g., in sports or trade) using this verb. Your vocabulary should include related idioms and obscure compound words. You should also be able to appreciate the word's use in poetry or prose to convey a sense of careful consideration or judgment. The distinction between '量る' and '諮る' (to consult) or '謀る' (to plot) should be second nature, even though they share the same pronunciation.
At the C2 level, you have mastered '量る' in all its forms, including its historical evolutions and its most obscure applications. You can use the verb in a highly stylized or professional manner, suitable for legal documents, high-level scientific research, or classical literary analysis. You understand the etymological roots of the kanji '量' and how it has shifted in meaning over centuries. You can engage in deep discussions about the philosophy of measurement and the limitations of '量る'-ing the physical world. You are also capable of identifying and using rare dialectal variations or archaic forms of the verb if necessary. In professional settings, you can use '量る' to describe complex logistical operations or macro-economic measurements of national output. Your mastery allows you to use the word with perfect register, whether you are talking to a child about measuring flour or delivering a lecture on the importance of precise measurement in aerospace engineering. The word '量る' is no longer just a verb to you; it is a conceptual tool that you can manipulate with absolute fluency and creative flair in any Japanese-speaking environment.

量る در ۳۰ ثانیه

  • 量る (hakaru) means to measure weight or volume using a scale or measuring cup.
  • It is a transitive verb that uses the particle 'を' for the object being measured.
  • It is specifically for mass (grams) and volume (liters), not for length or time.
  • Commonly used in cooking, health checkups (weight), and shipping/logistics contexts.

The Japanese verb 量る (hakaru) is a fundamental action word primarily focused on the physical determination of weight, volume, or quantity. While English often uses the broad term 'measure' for everything from length to time, Japanese is far more specific. When you see the kanji , you should immediately think of 'mass' or 'amount.' This specific kanji choice distinguishes it from other verbs pronounced 'hakaru' that deal with length or time. It is most commonly used in domestic settings like kitchens, medical settings when checking body mass, and industrial settings involving raw materials.

Weight Measurement
This is the most frequent use case. Whether you are standing on a scale to check your own weight or placing a piece of meat on a kitchen scale, you are performing the action of '量る'.

キッチンスケールで小麦粉の重さを量る。(Measure the weight of the flour with a kitchen scale.)

Beyond simple weight, this verb extends to the measurement of volume for liquids or grains. If you are using a measuring cup to determine exactly 200 milliliters of milk for a cake recipe, you are '量る'-ing that milk. The essence of the word lies in the quantification of physical matter. It is a transitive verb, meaning it requires a direct object—the thing being measured—followed by the particle 'を' (o).

Volume Determination
Used when using measuring spoons or cups to find the capacity or amount of a substance, particularly in cooking or laboratory work.

計量カップで水の分量を量る。(Measure the amount of water with a measuring cup.)

In a figurative sense, though less common than its physical application, it can be used to describe 'weighing' options or 'judging' the extent of someone's heart or feelings, though other kanji like '推し量る' are more typical for those nuances. However, in everyday conversation for an A2 learner, sticking to the physical measurement of weight and volume is the most accurate and useful application. It is a Godan verb, following standard conjugation patterns like '量ります' (hakarimasu) and '量った' (hakatta).

The 'Hakaru' Confusion
Japanese has several verbs pronounced 'hakaru'. Using the wrong kanji is a common mistake even for natives, but for a learner, mastering '量る' for weight specifically sets a strong foundation for literacy.

荷物の重さを量ってから、郵便局へ行きます。(I will measure the weight of the luggage before going to the post office.)

Using 量る correctly requires understanding its role as a transitive verb. The basic sentence structure is [Subject] が [Object] を 量る. In most daily scenarios, the subject is often omitted if it is 'I' or 'you'. The object is typically a noun representing a physical substance or a property of that substance, such as '重さ' (omosa - weight) or '分量' (bunryou - quantity/portion).

Daily Life Usage
In the morning, you might step on a scale. In Japanese, you would say '体重を量る' (taijuu o hakaru). This is a set phrase that every learner should memorize.

毎朝、起きたらすぐに体重を量るようにしています。(I make it a point to measure my weight as soon as I wake up every morning.)

In a culinary context, precision is key. Japanese recipes often specify ingredients by weight (grams) rather than volume, making '量る' a vital verb for following instructions. When you are measuring out spices, flour, or oil, you are engaging in the act of '計量' (keiryou - measurement), and the verb form is '量る'. You can also use it when asking someone else to perform the action, such as '量ってください' (Please measure it).

Professional and Scientific Usage
In a laboratory or factory, precision is even more critical. Here, '量る' is used for chemical reagents or raw materials for manufacturing.

実験を始める前に、薬品を正確に量らなければなりません。(Before starting the experiment, you must measure the chemicals accurately.)

Another interesting use case is in the logistics industry. Shipping companies must '量る' every package to determine the shipping fee. If you go to a Japanese post office (Yuubinkyoku), the staff will take your parcel and place it on a scale, often saying '重さを量りますね' (I will measure the weight, okay?). Understanding this verb allows you to navigate these common social interactions with confidence.

Passive and Potential Forms
'量れる' (hakereru - can measure) and '量られる' (hakarareru - is measured). For example, 'この秤では10キロまで量れます' (You can measure up to 10kg with this scale).

このデジタル秤は、0.1グラム単位で量れるので非常に便利です。(This digital scale is very convenient because it can measure in 0.1-gram units.)

You will encounter 量る in a variety of real-world Japanese environments, ranging from the domestic to the commercial. One of the most common places is the Japanese kitchen. If you watch Japanese cooking shows on NHK or follow YouTubers like 'Cooking with Dog,' the hosts will frequently use the word '量る' as they prepare ingredients. They might say, '砂糖を大さじ一杯量ります' (I will measure one tablespoon of sugar). This is where the verb feels most natural and everyday.

Supermarkets and Specialty Shops
In traditional Japanese markets or modern 'gram-selling' (hakari-uri) shops, you will hear this word constantly. Hakari-uri (量り売り) refers to selling items by weight, such as coffee beans, nuts, or even deli side dishes (osazu).

このお店では、コーヒー豆を100グラム単位で量って売っています。(This shop sells coffee beans by measuring them in 100-gram units.)

Another crucial location is the medical clinic or gym. During a health checkup (kenkou shindan), the nurse will ask you to step on the scale. They might say, 'では、体重を量りますので、こちらへどうぞ' (Now, we will measure your weight, so please come this way). Similarly, at a gym, personal trainers emphasize the importance of '体重を量る' to track progress. Hearing this word in these contexts reinforces its connection to physical health and monitoring.

Industrial and Construction Sites
While less common for the average traveler, on a construction site, workers must '量る' materials like cement or sand to ensure the structural integrity of a building. This highlights the verb's importance in safety and precision.

コンクリートを作るために、砂とセメントの割合を正確に量る必要があります。(To make concrete, it is necessary to accurately measure the ratio of sand and cement.)

Finally, you might hear this word in educational settings, specifically in science classes. Students are taught early on how to use a 'tenbin' (balance scale) or 'denshi-tenbin' (electronic balance) to '量る' various substances. Because the kanji for 'hakaru' changes based on what is being measured, Japanese children spend significant time learning when to use '量る' versus '測る' or '計る'. As a learner, hearing it used correctly in these environments will help you internalize the nuances of the Japanese language's specificity.

The most frequent mistake learners (and even some native speakers in writing) make with 量る is choosing the wrong kanji. Since 'hakaru' has at least five common kanji representations, it is easy to get confused. The primary error is using '測る' or '計る' when you should be using '量る'. Remember: '量る' is strictly for weight and volume. If you use '量る' to talk about measuring the length of a table, it is a kanji error.

Confusion with 測る (Hakaru)
'測る' is for length, depth, width, or height (e.g., measuring a person's height or the depth of a pool). Do not use '量る' for these physical dimensions.

Incorrect: 身長を量る → Correct: 身長を測る (Measure height).

Another common mistake is confusing it with '計る' (hakaru), which is used for time, temperature, or numerical calculation. For example, if you are measuring how many seconds it takes to run a race, you use '計る'. If you use '量る' in this context, a Japanese person will understand you, but it will look very strange in writing and indicate a lack of kanji mastery. Think of '計' as 'clock/number' and '量' as 'mass'.

Confusion with 図る (Hakaru)
'図る' means to plan or aim for something (e.g., aiming for a solution). This is an abstract concept and has nothing to do with physical measurement. Mixing these up is a sign of a beginner level mistake.

Incorrect: 解決を量る → Correct: 解決を図る (Aim for a solution).

Finally, learners sometimes forget that '量る' is a transitive verb. They might use the particle 'が' (ga) when 'を' (o) is required. For example, saying '砂糖が量る' implies the sugar itself is doing the measuring! Always ensure you are using 'を' for the substance being weighed. Additionally, ensure you don't confuse '量る' with '数える' (kazoeru - to count). You 'count' individual items like apples, but you 'measure' (量る) the weight of a bag of apples.

Understanding 量る is easier when you compare it to its synonyms and related terms. The most direct relatives are the other 'hakaru' verbs, which we have discussed, but there are also more specific verbs and nouns that can act as alternatives depending on the level of formality or the specific action being performed.

計量する (Keiryou suru)
This is the noun-verb (suru-verb) version of '量る'. It is more formal and is often found on the packaging of measuring tools or in scientific reports. While '量る' is conversational, '計量する' is professional.

Another alternative is 測定する (Sokutei suru). This word is much broader and can cover weight, length, and other physical properties. It is the term used for 'measurement' in a general, scientific sense. If you are in a lab, you might say '測定を行う' (perform measurements) rather than just '量る'.

Comparison of 'Hakaru' Verbs
  • 量る: Weight, volume (sugar, body weight).
  • 測る: Length, depth, area (height, sea depth).
  • 計る: Time, temperature, numbers (time, fever).
  • 図る: Planning, aiming (solving a problem).
  • 諮る: Consulting, discussing (meeting context).

料理では材料を量り、時間はタイマーで計ります。(In cooking, you measure ingredients [weight] and measure time with a timer.)

For liquid specifically, you might sometimes see 汲む (kumu) used in the sense of 'scooping' a certain amount, though this refers more to the physical action of scooping than the mental act of measuring. However, '量る' remains the most precise word for determining the amount. In casual speech, people might just say 'チェックする' (check) for weight, but '量る' is the correct and most descriptive verb to use.

نکات

Particle Choice

Always use 'を' for the object and 'で' for the tool. 'はかりで砂糖を量る'.

Kanji Hint

The kanji '量' is used in '重量' (weight) and '容量' (capacity). If it's about weight or volume, use this one!

Kitchen Usage

Japanese recipes are very precise. '量る' is your best friend in a Japanese kitchen.

Health Checkups

When the nurse says 'hakaru', they mean '量る' for weight but '測る' for height. In speech, it's the same, but in your head, know the difference!

Compound Verbs

Learn '量り売り' (selling by weight) as it's a very common sight in Japan.

Stroke Order

The kanji '量' has 12 strokes. Make sure the '日' part in the middle is clear.

Weighty Kanji

The bottom part of '量' looks like '里' (village). Imagine weighing a whole village's food supply!

Post Office

At the post office, you will always '量る' your packages. It's a great place to practice hearing the word.

Abstract Usage

Use '量り知れない' to describe something truly amazing or tragic that goes beyond numbers.

Listen for Units

If you hear 'gram', 'liter', or 'kilo', you know the speaker is talking about '量る'.

حفظ کنید

روش یادسپاری

Think of the '量' kanji as looking like a heavy 'box' on top of a 'scale'. Since it's heavy, you use it to '量る' (measure weight).

تداعی تصویری

Visualize a digital kitchen scale with a bowl of flour on it. The number on the screen is the '量' (quantity).

شبکه واژگان

Scale (秤) Weight (重さ) Volume (分量) Gram (グラム) Liter (リットル) Sugar (砂糖) Body weight (体重) Measuring cup (計量カップ)

چالش

Go into your kitchen and find three items. Use the verb '量る' in a sentence for each item as you pretend to weigh them.

ریشه کلمه

The verb 'hakaru' is an ancient Japanese word (Yamato Kotoba) that has existed since before the introduction of kanji. The kanji '量' was later assigned to represent the specific meaning of measuring mass or volume.

معنای اصلی: To determine the extent or quantity of something.

Japonic

بافت فرهنگی

Be careful when using '体重を量る' (measuring weight) in social situations, as weight can be a sensitive topic in Japan just as in other cultures.

English speakers use 'measure' for everything. Japanese speakers must switch between '量る', '測る', and '計る', which feels more clinical and precise.

The phrase '量り知れない' is often used in Japanese news to describe the impact of natural disasters. Traditional 'Hakari' (scales) are often seen in historical anime or samurai dramas. Cooking shows on NHK always emphasize '正確に量る' (measuring accurately).

سوالات متداول

10 سوال

No, height is a length/distance measurement, so you must use '測る' (hakaru). '量る' is only for weight and volume.

No, for time you should use '計る' (hakaru). For example, '時間を計る' (measure time).

It means 'selling by weight'. You see this in shops where you pay based on how many grams you buy, like at a salad bar or coffee shop.

You can say '10グラム量る' or '10グラム量り出す' (hakaridasu).

Yes, it is. You use the particle 'を' to show what you are measuring. For example: '砂糖を量る'.

Usually '推し量る' is used, but if you just use 'hakaru', '量る' is sometimes used metaphorically for 'weight of feelings', though it's literary.

You use a '秤' (hakari - scale), '計量カップ' (keiryou kappu - measuring cup), or '計量スプーン' (keiryou spoon - measuring spoon).

No, temperature uses '計る'. For example: '熱を計る' (measure a fever).

'量る' is the basic verb, while '計量する' is a more formal noun-verb used in technical or formal contexts.

Since it is a Godan verb, it becomes '量れる' (hakereru), meaning 'can measure'.
