Godan verb (る)

遣るやる

yaru

to do · N5

遣る (やる, yaru) — to do — is a godan verb ending in る: やって (te-form), やった (past), やらない (negative), やります (polite).

It is transitive: it takes a direct object. It is usually written in kana: やる rather than 遣る. It also means to undertake; to perform.

How やる conjugates · godan る-verb

Only the last kana changes: る becomes ら, り, れ or ろ.

Which one depends on the ending. The five are one line of the hiragana chart — same consonant, vowels あ・い・う・え・お — and everything before that kana never changes.
