Min izāmō

Min izāmō is an Arabic term that refers to the minimum wage that workers are legally entitled to receive for their work. Imagine you and your friends are playing a game, and you all agree that every time you win a round, you'll get a piece of candy as a prize. Min izāmō is like the minimum number of pieces of candy you're guaranteed to get every time you play the game. This candy is like your salary - you can't work for less than the minimum wage, just like you can't play the game and not get your minimum number of candy pieces. The government sets the min izāmō to make sure that workers are paid fairly for the work they do and can afford the things they need to live, like food and a place to live.
