    雷: thunder. The Japanese noun '雷 (かみなり)' means 'thunder'. It refers to the loud, rumbling sound that accompanies lightning during a storm. This word is often used in weather-related contexts and can evoke a sense of power or fear due to the loud and sudden nature of thunder. For example: The thunder is loud「雷が大きい」(かみなりがおおきい).
