Debt
noun, する verb
The money (and gold) you borrow is your debt. Be sure to pay it back before the yakuza come for you.
しゃっきん
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. If you know the readings of your kanji you'll know how to read this as well. The しゃく gets shortened to しゃっ though, so beware. Just think of that like the little bit that you lost to the yakuza, because they weren't happy you didn't pay back your debt. *cut*
