[JLPT N3] “overflowing”: [はずれて・ふくれて・のまれて・あふれて]？

Today, I’m sharing a practice question for JLPT prep.

This one’s for intermediate learners (JLPT N3)!

Can you choose the correct answer?





[Practice Question]


おふろの水がいっぱいになって、(＿＿)いるよ。

*おふろのみずがいっぱいになって、(＿＿)いるよ。



1 はずれて

2 ふくれて

3 のまれて

4 あふれて

[Answer]


おふろの水がいっぱいになって、(4 あふれて)いるよ。

The bath is full and the water is overflowing.





Let’s think:

What happens after 水がいっぱいになった (the water became full)?

When a container (like a cup, bucket, or bathtub) gets full of liquid, the contents spill out.



The verb for this action is:

あふれる

= to overflow



The te-form is あふれて.



So, あふれて is the correct choice.





✖ Other choices:

はずれて (外れて)

はずれる

= to come off, to become detached



ふくれて (膨れて)

ふくれる

= to swell, to bulge



のまれて (飲まれて)

のまれる

= to be swallowed up (passive form)







I hope this explanation helps! 😊
