To Be Fried Up
To Be Deep Fried, To Be Up
intransitive verb, godan verb
This word consists of kanji with hiragana attached. Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb.
This is an intransitive verb. The kanji means hoist, but the verb most commonly means to be fried up, ready to eat. Imagine something being hoisted up onto the table because it's fried and ready to eat. The verb can also mean, more logically, to be up.
Since this word has okurigana (hiragana attached to the kanji) you know that it's probably going to be the kun'yomi reading.
Lucky for you, the kanji readings for transitive and intransitive verbs are almost always the same. Once you learn one, you know them both! This reading is the same as 揚げる.
唐揚げ揚がったよ!
The fried chicken (karaage) is fried up!
天ぷらが揚がるまで静かに待っていた。
We waited quietly until the tempura was deep fried.
旗が揚がったら出発だ。
We'll head out once the flag is up.
