数 (かず) is a Japanese word meaning "number" or "amount". The word is composed of the kanji characters "数" meaning "count" or "number". The kanji is formed by the junction of two elements: the radical "木" which means "tree" and the radical "夊" which means "foot".

The word 数 is used in several situations in the Japanese language, such as mathematical expressions, counting objects, amounts of food, among others.How to Write in Japanese - (数) kazu
