    聞き手: listener. The Japanese noun '聞き手 (ききて)' refers to a 'listener' or someone who is listening. It is often used in contexts where someone is actively paying attention to what is being said, such as in conversations, speeches, or storytelling. For example: The listener was very attentive「聞き手はとても注意深かった」(ききてはとてもちゅういぶかかった). The speaker tried to engage the listener「話し手は聞き手を引きつけようとした」(はなしてはききてをひきつけようとした). This term emphasizes the role of the person receiving information or a story, rather than the one delivering it.
