Explanation

This is a jukugo word that uses the on'yomi readings of the kanji. You should be able to read this on your own.

The secondary reading is a bit different. That's a family name, and uses the kun'yomi readings of both kanji. We'll consider this secondary for now, but you may have to come back to this when you see this as a name and are all like "what's going on here??"
