    Example Word

    白髪: gray hair. The Japanese noun '白髪 (しらが)' refers to 'gray hair' or 'white hair'. It is commonly used to describe hair that has lost its natural color due to aging or stress. This word is often used in contexts related to aging or appearance. For example: My father has gray hair「父は白髪だ」(ちちはしらがだ). She noticed a few gray hairs「彼女は白髪を数本見つけた」(かのじょはしらがをすうほんみつけた). The term can also carry a poetic or reflective nuance when discussing the passage of time or life changes.
