First attested in the 葡日辞書じしょ (Ra-Ho-Nichi Jisho, Latin-Portuguese-Japanese Dictionary) of 1595.[1]

Etymology 2

edit
Kanji in this term
りく
ろく
Grade: 4
goon
Alternative spelling
ろく (non-legal)

Substitute spelling for ろく (roku, six),[6][2] likely borrowed from similar usage of written Chinese りく (six).

Pronunciation

edit

Noun

edit

りく(ろく) (roku

  1. (financial, archaic) the number six, 6 (used only in legal documents, otherwise ろく)
Usage notes
edit

Legal uses arose due to the relative ease with which certain number kanji can be fraudulently altered to look like other number kanji. For instance, いち (ichi, one) could be modified to look like ろく (roku, six), but it cannot be modified to look like りく (roku, six, in legal contexts).
