Morphology
The meaning 'income a government receives from taxes' is directly and compositionally derivable from 'tax' (a government charge) + 'revenue' (money collected). This noun+noun compound follows a common, cross-linguistic economic naming pattern and would be immediately understandable to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Tax revenue gives a simple picture: coins or payments paid as tax go into the government's money box, making its revenue. That's why it means 'income that a government receives from taxes on individuals, businesses, goods, or services'.
