How to say "brokerage" in Japanese
- 仲買なかがいnounRefers to brokerage as the broker's side of a deal — the business of intermediating between buyer and seller, or the broker himself. It is not the word for the fee or commission charged.
- 手数料てすうりょうnounA word for fees and charges generally; it covers brokerage only in the sense of the commission paid for a broker's services, never the brokerage business itself.
Use 仲買 when brokerage means the broker's business of intermediating deals, and 手数料 when it means the commission or fee charged for that service; the two words answer to different senses of the English term.
