Talk:あき

RFV discussion: January 2018–February 2021
I know that read as しょう can mean “a business, a seller of goods”, and that the verb  (あきなう) means “to deal in, to sell”. But is the character ever read as あき, and does it then mean “the trade of goods”? Cnilep (talk) 07:56, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * There are (あきんど, あきうど, あきゅうど, あきびと, しょうにん; "merchant") and  (あきもの, "goods"), but that's probably it. In both words the character indeed seems to denote business or trade. Nardog (talk) 08:18, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * @Cnilep -- In, the character covers the akina- portion.  However, etymologically, the root is aki plus suffix -nau, and the root appears to be what is reflected in these other terms.  ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 18:42, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
