票, ticket, vote

About this kanji

The kanji 票 (ひょう) primarily means "ticket" or "vote". It is often used as a noun. One common compound word is 投票 (とうひょう), which means "vote," used in the context of elections. Another example is 証票 (しょうひょう), meaning "voucher," typically seen in financial settings. There's also 入場券 (にゅうじょうけん), which refers to an "entrance ticket" for events or places. A useful note is that while 票 is associated with voting and tickets, it doesn’t have a native Japanese reading, making its use mostly limited to words of Chinese origin.

Example sentences

• 選挙の票を投じた。

  I cast my vote in the election.
