Etymology

/kʷaɡaku/ → /kaɡaku/

First attested in the mid-Meiji period as a translation of English science.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

Coined in Japan of Middle Chinese-derived elements 科 (ka, “field”) +‎ 学 (-gaku, “school, study”).

Pronunciation

Noun

Usage notes

Sometimes pronounced as しな学 (shinagaku) in order to differentiate from the homophone and phonetically identical 化学 (kagaku, “chemistry”). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)
