N5 Vocabulary · Test 62

The underlined word じかん is written 時間, meaning 'time'. 時 (じ) means 'time/hour' and 間 (かん) means 'interval/space of time'.

• 1時問 uses 問 (もん, question) instead of 間; this is not the correct kanji for かん here.
• 2蒔間 uses 蒔 (まく/じ, to plant) instead of 時; this is not read じかん.
• 3時聞 uses 聞 (きく/ぶん, to listen) instead of 間; this is not read じかん.

• じかん — time
• ひま — free time, spare time

The underlined word らじお is a loanword from English 'radio' and is written in katakana as ラジオ. The sentence means 'I listen to the radio in my free time.'

• 2ラジホ replaces the final オ with ホ; this is not the correct katakana spelling for 'radio'.
• 3ヲジオ replaces the first ラ with ヲ; this is not the correct spelling.
• 4ヲジホ has both wrong characters; this is not the correct spelling.

• らじお（ラジオ） — radio

The underlined word ききます means 'to listen' and is written 聞きます. The sentence means 'I listen to the radio in my free time.' The verb 聞く means to listen/hear/ask.

• 1開きます is read あきます and means 'to open (intransitive)'; it is not read ききます.
• 2関きます is not a standard word; 関 is read かん/せき and does not form a verb read ききます.
• 4闇きます is not a standard word; 闇 is read やみ (darkness) and does not form a verb read ききます.

• ききます（聞きます） — to listen, to hear

The underlined word した means 'under/below' and is written with the kanji 下. The sentence means 'A calendar is stuck under the clock.'

• 1止 is read と(める)/し and means 'stop'; it is not read した.
• 2上 is read うえ/かみ/じょう and means 'up/above'; it is the opposite of what is needed.
• 3木 is read き/もく and means 'tree/wood'; it is not read した.

• した — under, below
• どけい — clock
• かれんだー（カレンダー） — calendar
• はってあります（貼ってあります） — is posted/is stuck (on something)

The word かれんだー in the stem is the hiragana representation of the loanword 'calendar.' The correct katakana spelling is カレンダー. Option 4 (カレンダ) is the closest match and is clearly the intended answer, though it appears to be missing the long-vowel mark ー (see issues).

• 1ケレングー uses the wrong initial kana (ケ instead of カ) and a non-existent ending (ングー instead of ンダー).
• 2ケレンダー starts with ケ instead of カ — the wrong first syllable.
• 3カレングー has the correct start but a garbled ending (ングー instead of ンダー).

• カレンダー（かれんだー） — calendar
