Meaning

Primary

To Be In A Hurry

Alternatives

To Be Impatient, To Be Anxious

Word Type

intransitive verb, godan verb

Explanation

This is a bit of a weird word. The kanji is char, and a previous word you learned (焦げる) is "to be burned." This, on the other hand, is "to be in a hurry" or "to be impatient." I guess if you're getting burned or have that feeling, you're going to be in a hurry and you're going to be impatient. You can tell that this is that word because it only has one kana, , which stands for rude. You're feeling someone is being rude (or maybe you are), which is why you have this feeling of impatience and hurrying.
