    Example Word

    白線: white line. The Japanese noun '白線 (はくせん)' refers to a 'white line'. This term is commonly used to describe painted white lines on roads, sports fields, or other surfaces. For example: The white line on the road is clear「道路の白線ははっきりしている」(どうろのはくせんははっきりしている). The players must stay behind the white line「選手たちは白線の後ろにいなければならない」(せんしゅたちははくせんのうしろにいなければならない). In some contexts, it can also refer to anatomical structures, such as the 'linea alba' in medical terminology, but this usage is less common in everyday language.
