っぱなし

is used to describe something left in a state of being on or used. For example:

water running	( みず水を) だ出しっぱなし
electricity / light on	( でんき電気 / でんとう電灯を) つ点けっぱなし
windows open	( まど窓を) あ開けっぱなし
cord connected	( でんげん電源コードを) つな繋ぎっぱなし

ぎっぱなしにして

しゅうしん

する

は

いと

いますが、

%を

じょうたい

じゅうでん

けると、バッテリーの

を

させてしまいます。
I know that there are many people who leave the cord plugged in and go to sleep, but if you continue to charge the phone when it's over 100%, this will cause steady deterioration of the battery.

This form of the verb functions as an adjective, so the most typical usage is:

[object] を [〜っぱなし] にする (to leave something in a ~ state of being)

This form typically operates on a transitive form of a verb. So for example compare:

まど
窓
が
ひら
開
いている (the window is open)
まど
窓
を
あ
開
けっぱなしにした (I left the window open)

Change component list

By default the component builder shows the most common components (themselves joyo kanji, or used in at least 3 other joyo kanji). Select an alternative set of components below.

All components and radicals

Full details of all components and their English names can be found here.

Help with the component builder

For detailed instructions, see the Component builder how to guide.

To find any kanji, first try to identify the components it is made up of.

For any components you recognize, if you know the English meaning or name, start typing it in the text area. Full details of all components and their English names can be found here.

Alternatively, count the strokes of the component, and scan the list to find it visually.

Example

To find the kanji 漢:

Notice that it is made of several components: 氵艹口夫.
氵艹口 all have three strokes, so you could look in the list in the 3 stroke section. 夫 has four strokes.
Alternatively, you could start typing 'water' (氵), 'grass' (艹), 'mouth' (口) or 'husband' (夫) in the search area, and the components will be highlighted in yellow.
Keep adding components until you can see your kanji in the list of matches that appears near the top.
