How do you say "oven" in Japanese?

オーブン is romanised as ōbun. Say it roughly like "oh-boo-n" in English. Each Japanese syllable has even weight, so keep the rhythm steady.

オーブン is a neutral, everyday word that works in both casual and polite speech. The level of formality comes from the sentence structure around it, not from the word itself.

オーブン is written using katakana. Ōbun is katakana from English oven, marking modern electric or gas ovens distinct from traditional wood-fired stoves in Japanese kitchens..
