tithe; tithing
A religious offering of one-tenth of one's income or produce, especially in Christian contexts.
教会では什一献金を奨励している。
The church encourages tithing.
Standard kanji spelling using 什一 for 'one-tenth'.
Irregular kanji usage where 十一 is used phonetically for じゅういち; may be encountered but less standard.
From 什一 (じゅういち, 'one-tenth') + 献金 (けんきん, 'donation'). The term is a direct translation of the Christian concept of tithing.
