uriagekin wo uketorimasita.

It is read:

うりあげきん を うけとりました
uriagekin o uketorimashita

A few reading notes:

• 売上金 = うりあげきん
• を is written を but pronounced お in modern Japanese
• 受け取りました = うけとりました

So the whole sentence sounds like:

uriagekin o uketorimashita

売上金 means sales money, proceeds from sales, or revenue money received from selling something.

It breaks down like this:

• 売上 = sales, amount sold, revenue
• 金 = money

So 売上金 is not just any money. It specifically refers to money connected to sales.

Depending on context, English translations could include:

• I received the sales proceeds.
• I received the money from the sales.
• I received the revenue.

を marks the direct object of the verb.

In this sentence:

• 売上金 = the thing being received
• 受け取りました = received

So 売上金を受け取りました literally means:

[sales money] + [object marker] + [received]

English uses word order to show this, but Japanese often uses particles instead. Here, を tells you that 売上金 is what was received.

The dictionary form is 受け取る.

So:

• 受け取る = to receive, to take receipt of
• 受け取りました = received / have received (polite past)

This verb often has a nuance of formally receiving, accepting, or taking possession of something.

That can make it sound a little more specific than a very general English get.

ました is the polite past ending.

Here is the pattern:

• 受け取ります = receive / will receive (polite non-past)
• 受け取りました = received (polite past)

So this sentence is in a polite style, which is very common in:

• business situations
• customer communication
• formal writing
• neutral polite conversation

Using ました makes the sentence sound more polite than plain-form 受け取った.

It can, but Japanese often leaves the subject unstated when it is understood from context.

So 売上金を受け取りました could mean:

• I received the sales money
• We received the sales money
• He/She received the sales money

The exact subject depends on the situation.

This is very normal in Japanese. If the speaker and situation make the subject obvious, Japanese usually does not repeat it.

Because Japanese often omits information that is already clear.

If the topic is already known, saying 私は may be unnecessary. For example, in a business message or report, just saying:

売上金を受け取りました。

is perfectly natural if everyone already knows who is speaking.

You could add a subject if needed:

• 私は売上金を受け取りました。 = I received the sales money.
• 担当者が売上金を受け取りました。 = The person in charge received the sales money.

But without context, the shorter version is very common.

Both can relate to receiving, but they are not exactly the same.

受け取りました

• focuses on taking receipt of something
• often sounds more formal or procedural
• common in business, deliveries, payments, documents

もらいました

• means received in a more general, everyday sense
• often sounds more personal or casual
• common for gifts, help, items from someone

So in a money/business context, 売上金を受け取りました sounds more natural and appropriate than 売上金をもらいました.

もらいました can sometimes sound like was given, while 受け取りました can sound more like officially received.

No, that would be incorrect.

With 受け取る, the thing received is the direct object, so it takes を, not が.

Correct:

• 売上金を受け取りました。

Incorrect:

• 売上金が受け取りました。

が usually marks the subject, so using it here would make 売上金 look like the doer of the action, which does not make sense.

Mostly yes: it means the receiving happened and is complete.

But in English, depending on context, it may be translated as either:

• received
• have received

For example:

• in a report: We received the sales proceeds.
• in a confirmation message: We have received the sales proceeds.

Japanese ました does not map perfectly to only one English tense. The context decides the most natural translation.

Yes, it is polite and fairly natural in formal or business contexts.

Why it sounds formal/polite:

• it uses 受け取りました instead of plain-form 受け取った
• the vocabulary fits administrative or business situations

Compare:

• 売上金を受け取りました。 = polite / businesslike
• 売上金を受け取った。 = plain form, less polite
• 売上金をもらいました。 = polite, but less formal in nuance

So this sentence would fit well in emails, reports, or customer-related communication.

No. Standard Japanese normally does not use spaces between words.

So the normal writing would be:

売上金を受け取りました。

The spaced version:

売上金　を　受け取りました。

is usually just for learners, textbooks, or formatting purposes to make the parts easier to see.

Yes, sometimes.

受け取る can mean:

• to receive
• to take delivery of
• to accept
• to take something into one’s possession

In this sentence, because the object is 売上金, the meaning is basically receive the sales money. But in other contexts, 受け取る can emphasize that the person actually took and accepted the item, not just that it was sent.

For example, with parcels, tickets, or documents, 受け取る often has the feeling of taking receipt of something.

Because in compounds, 金 often has the Sino-Japanese reading きん.

So:

• 売上金 = うりあげきん

If you used かね, it would sound unnatural here.

This is very common in Japanese vocabulary:

• 料金 = りょうきん
• 現金 = げんきん
• 税金 = ぜいきん

So 売上金 follows the same pattern.
