#次

[daily-hyosatsu]

Today we have a number name that's also a common word! How exciting! As a common noun, 三次 (さんじ) means tertiary, third-order, or cubic. As a proper noun, 三次 is usually read Mitsugi or Miyoshi (though in rare cases, it could be Mitsuji, Mitsuyoshi, Mitsutsugi, Mitsugu, or Sanji).

三 means three. It’s read み, み.つ, みっ.つ, サン, or ゾウ.

次 is a very common kanji, but it's new to this blog! It means next, and often refers to order or sequence. It's read つ.ぐ, つぎ, ジ, or シ.

The left radical, which looks like katakana ン, is actually the two-stroke water/ice radical 冫. Its right radical is 欠, meaning to lack. I can't think of a mnemonic...... Anyone want to suggest one?

Kanji for "Circle", "round", "yen"

円 = en/ maru•i

ほぼ一間年- hoboichimanen - about (roughly) 10,000 yen - ほぼいちまねん

千円札- senensatsu - a 1,000 yen bill - せんえんさつ

五百円- gohyakuen - five hundred yen - ごひゃくえん

円顔- marugao - a round face - まるがお

円い- marui - round/ circular/ spherical - まるい

円- en - yen - えん

(Note: This is the kanji for "yen" you might be used to pronouncing it with a Y but this is not the Japanese pronounciation. In Japanese it is said "en"

Wikipage note: The spelling and pronunciation "yen" is standard in English. This is because when Japan was first encountered by Europeans around the 16th (The Dutch had some influence here by the way) century, Japanese /e/(え) and /we/ (ゑ) both had been pronounced [je] and Portuguese missionaries had spelled them "ye". Some time thereafter, by the middle of the 18th century, /e/ and /we/ came to be pronounced [e] as in modern Japanese, although some regions retain the [je] pronunciation. Walter Henry Medhurst, who had neither been to Japan nor met any Japanese, having consulted mainly a Japanese-Dutch dictionary, spelled some "e"s as "ye" in his An English and Japanese, and Japanese and English Vocabulary (1830). In the early Meiji era, James Curtis Hepburn, following Medhurst, spelled all "e"s as "ye" in his A Japanese and English dictionary (1867). That was the first full-scale Japanese-English/English-Japanese dictionary, which had a strong influence on Westerners in Japan and probably prompted the spelling "yen". Hepburn revised most of "ye"s to "e" in the 3rd edition (1886) in order to mirror the contemporary pronunciation, except "yen". This was probably already fixed and has remained so ever since.)
