Counter

IPA: [kã̠ɴ] Forms: [canonical] (ruby: (かん)), -kan [romanization], kwan [romanization], くわん [hiragana, historical]
Etymology: Likely from Dutch kan (“cylindrical metallic container”), with additional influence from English can (“cylindrical metallic container”). The kanji is an example of ateji (当て字). Alternatively, from Middle Chinese 罐 (kuɑnH, “can; jar; tin”). The usage of 缶 is likely due to a 新字体 (shinjitai) simplification from earlier 旧字体 (kyūjitai) 罐, where the phonetic component 雚 was entirely eliminated.
