English Explanation

Both 芸 (skill) and 術 (technique) use their On'yomi readings, げい and じゅつ. Misreadings like けいじゅつ or げいしゅつ often confuse similar-looking kanji or misinterpret the sound. 芸術 denotes creative human skill and imagination, producing works primarily for their beauty or emotional power, distinct from scientific or mathematical pursuits.

日本語解説

芸も術も音読みです。芸(げい)は「技」、術(じゅつ)は「方法」を意味し、「思想や感情を表現する創造的な活動やその作品」を指します。けいじゅつやげいしゅつなどの誤読は、濁点の有無や漢字の読み間違いによります。
