Meaning

Primary

Height

Word Type

noun

Explanation

You've seen the word 高い from a couple levels ago. This word is related to that. It's like 大きい versus 大きさ, where one describes the other. In this case, the 高さ is the height of something (while 高い is tall). This word isn't "price" though. For that you'd ask いくらですか? (how much is it?).

Reading

たかさ

Explanation

Use the reading of 高い (たかい) to help you to learn and remember the reading for this one. They are the same with just the hiragana at the end different.
