Explanation and Etymology - (給料) kyuuryou
The Japanese word 給料 (kyūryō) is composed of two kanji characters: 給 (kyū) which means "to provide" or "to supply" and 料 (ryō) which means "price" or "cost". Together, they form the meaning of "salary" or "remuneration". The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when the cash payment system started to be used in Japan. Prior to that, payment was made in rice or other agricultural products. With the shift to cash payment, the word kyūryō began to be used to refer to workers' payment. Nowadays, the word is widely used in Japan to refer to the monthly or weekly salary that a worker receives for their work.How to Write in Japanese - (給料) kyuuryou
