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".How to Write in Japanese - (零) rei
