Explanation and Etymology - (零) rei

The Japanese word 零 (rei) means "zero" in Portuguese. The etymology of the word dates back to ancient Chinese, where the character 零 was used to represent the number zero. The word was later adopted by the Japanese and is widely used in various fields such as mathematics, science, and technology. The character 零 is composed of two elements, 雨 (ame) which means "rain" and 令 (rei) which means "order" or "command". The combination of these two elements suggests the idea of "rain falling in order", which can be interpreted as the idea of "nothing" or "empty".
