につき

per, apiece


Noun + につき

This grammar point is used to express a rate, ratio, or proportion. It translates to 'per', 'apiece', or 'for every' in English. It is commonly used when discussing prices, quantities, or frequency relative to a specific unit.

Quantity Noun + につき

When attached directly to a noun representing a unit (such as people, time, or objects), it establishes a fixed rate for that unit.


One hundred yen per person.

Two apples per box.

One thousand yen per hour.

Note

につき is often used in formal or business contexts, such as signs, menus, or official documents. While it functions similarly to the particle に in some contexts of frequency, につき specifically emphasizes the ratio or the 'per unit' aspect.
