Per capita is a Latin phrase meaning for each head

Per capita income is often used as a measure of the wealth of the population of a nation, particularly in comparison to other nations. It is usually expressed in terms of a commonly-used international currency such as the Euro or United States dollar, and is useful because it is widely known and produces a straightforward statistic for comparison. It is the average income a person in the country is earning.

谢谢博士,为了查这个单词我特意到书店买了一本22万字的词典,结果还是没查到

『谢谢』 『崇拜』

呵呵，斗胆补充一下博士的解释：
per是‘每个’的意思，capita原意就是‘头’的意思，所以，per capita就是‘每人’的意思，capital是‘首都’的意思，‘首’也是头的意思。
