割引

Discount


Meaning

Discount

Word Type

noun, verbal noun, の adjective

Explanation

Divide that price and pull it apart. You only have to pay for one part! What a discount.


Reading

わりびき

Explanation

The readings are the ones you learned with the kanji. き from ひき kind of just gets stuffed into the 引 and hidden away like that strange collection of fingernails you have hidden in your closet drawer inside of a 35mm film container. Also remember that the reading gets changed to びき here because of that pesky rendaku.
