Does "salary" mean "yearly income" in all contexts in English?

The word 年収 means "yearly income".

彼女の年収が高いです。
= Her yearly income is high.

彼女の給料が高いです。
= Her salary is high.

@CK
What do you think?

@Adrien_FR
Welcome to Tatoeba.
I would recommend not using reviews as "wrong links," they're usually about the correctness of the sentence itself.

> Does "salary" mean "yearly income" in all contexts in English?

It doesn't need to mean the same in all contexts to be a valid translation. We allow alternative translations to cover various contexts.

As an example, we can and do often translate 弟 as "brother" even though "brother" is not 弟 in all contexts.

Note that "salary" is money paid by an employer.
"Income" also includes money from investments and other sources.

@KK_kaku_
If 年収 can mean "yearly salary", then "salary" is OK, since in many contexts that's what it means.

I'm not sure I'd use the word "very" since the Japanese just says "高いです。".

@KK_kaku_

Perhaps you could add Japanese translations to these sentences with audio and the phrase "yearly salary".

@KK_kaku_

I noticed that you have rated the Japanese sentences as "?".

All that said, I think it would be OK to unlink these.

Her salary is very high.
彼女の年収が高いです。

Thanks. I'll unlink the Japanese.
