Now Viewing: tallyTag type: General 正の字 (sei no ji) Marks that are made in order to keep count of something. Western style tally marks use four vertical lines with a fifth diagonal or horizontal line drawn through them to mark five. In Japan, the kanji 正 (en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E6%AD%A3) is used to keep a tally. Each stroke in the kanji counts as one tally, with a total of five strokes to complete it. www.japanesewithanime.com/2018/02/japanese-tally-mark.html Other Wiki Information Last updated: 05/26/24 7:54 PM by DocWatson This entry is not locked and you can edit it as you see fit. |
