An unusual word: you will almost never meet sake standing on its own. It lives inside fixed frames — for the sake of…, for God's sake, for its own sake — where it names the thing a person is acting for: whose good, or what purpose, the action is aimed at. Because the bare noun barely exists in modern English, the honest way to learn it is frame by frame. (A completely separate word, borrowed from Japanese, is also spelled sake.)
