Multiple on-readings (ゲン, ゴン) — each appears in different compound words. Learn them in context. Appears in many compounds — memorize the key ones rather than the kanji in isolation. Has multiple meanings (strict; solemn; severe). Context determines which applies — pay attention in reading passages. This kanji forms verbs/adjectives with okurigana. Practice both the word form and compound forms.
