    Kanji in this term
    かん
    Grade: S
    (ateji)
    on'yomi
    Alternative spelling
    (kyūjitai)

Alternatively, from Middle Chinese (kuɑnH, can; jar; tin). The usage of is likely due to a 新字体 (shinjitai) simplification from earlier 旧字体 (kyūjitai) , where the phonetic component was entirely eliminated.
