馴らす
ならす · narasu · JLPT N3 · verb-godan
to tame
🐴🦌 narasu sounds like Nara, whose famously tame deer bow to visitors
馴 = 馬 horse + 川 river: a horse that goes along with you as smoothly as a river flows. The same reading, 慣らす narasu, means to get used to something, and taming an animal means getting it used to people.
