repudiate, exclude, expel, reject

About this kanji

The kanji 排 (はい) primarily means to repudiate, exclude, or expel something. It is often used in noun compounds rather than as a standalone verb. For example, 排出 (はいしゅつ) means "discharge," referring to the act of releasing something, like waste. 排除 (はいじょ) translates to "exclusion," which can pertain to omitting someone or something from a group. Another compound, 排水 (はいすい), means "drainage," dealing with the removal of water. While 排 itself doesn't have a standalone kun'yomi reading, it's crucial for understanding a variety of terms related to removal or separation in practical contexts.

Example sentences

• 有害物質を排出する。

  It emits harmful substances.
