Collecting Money
Money Collection
noun, する verb
When you collect gold you are collecting money (or doing money collection). Of course, back in the day gold was like money, which is why this word works the way it does. Hopefully you don't have to deal with too much 集金 in your daily life. We'll try to keep WaniKani nice and reasonably priced for you.
