    ¥ is the symbol for Japanese currency with the kanji being 円 (えん/en)

    The “y” is added in the English translation

    The text on the left is being translated as kanji but it’s very nonsensical so it’s possible the text on the left is chinese being translated as Japanese to English but the ¥ symbol on the right is definitely the Japanese yen
