To Play
intransitive verb, godan verb
Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb. The kanji itself means play and the verb vocab version is to play.
You want to play with everyone, but every once in a while someone doesn't want to play with you. You know what? That's okay. If someone doesn't want to play with you, they're the a**hole (あそ), not you.

今度、俺んちで遊ばない?

「宿題が済むまで、外で遊んじゃだめだからね。」「言われなくても分かってるよ!」
