Example of early stage oj the shift in Pazeh pila 'silver', 'silver coin'. In Austronesian languages the word for 'silver' is an extremely widespread loanword appears to be of Mon-Khmer origin (Thurgood 1999:360). It evidently was acquired by Malay as a result of contacts on the mainland of Southeast Asia, and then spread throughout much of western Indonesia-Malaysia, the Philippines and Taiwan through trade contacts, perhaps mediated by the Dutch presence in southwest Taiwan from 1624-1661, and the Spanish presence in northeast Taiwan from 1626-1642 (the latter out of Manila). (ACD).
Japanese also kane 銀 'metal, money', the same character as gin 'silver'. In former times, silver was the basis for the Japanese economy.In modern Japanese, kane is more commonly spelled using the character for gold: 金. The money sense is more commonly prefixed with お (o-), as in お金 (o-kane).
