The Chinese word 奖金 refers to a bonus or reward given to someone for their good performance, usually in a professional or work-related context. It is commonly used in China and other Mandarin-speaking countries to incentivize employees and recognize their achievements. For example, a company might offer a year-end bonus to all employees who meet their targets, or a salesperson might receive a commission bonus for exceeding their sales quota. 奖金 can also be used in non-work contexts, such as a prize for winning a competition or a gift for a special occasion.
