九 is a Japanese word that means "nine". It is composed of the kanji (ideogram) 九, which represents the number nine. The etymology of the kanji 九 is uncertain, but it is believed to have originally been drawn as a horizontal stroke with nine dots along it. The kanji is often used in combination with other Kanji to form larger numbers, such as 九十 (90) and 九百 (900).
