CEFR B2
wonton
Translation
ワンタン / 中華の包み団子
Meaning
A wonton is a small Chinese dumpling, usually filled with meat, seafood, or vegetables and served in soup or fried. It is a food word, not a moral judgment. The learner trap is confusing wonton with wanton, which means reckless or deliberately harmful.
Examples
- ワンタン入りのスープを注文しました。
