踊る

おどる · odoru · JLPT N4 · verb-godan

to dance

💃 odoru: oh, door! You dance through the door when the music starts

Sound-alike: odoru is close to oh-door-oo. The kanji 踊 has the foot radical 足 on the left, a reminder that dancing is done with the feet. Say it aloud: oh, door, and dance through it.
