Example Word

告白: confession. The Japanese noun '告白 (こくはく)' means 'confession'. It is commonly used to describe the act of confessing one's feelings, such as love, guilt, or a secret. This word is often used in romantic contexts, where someone confesses their love to another person. For example: He made a confession of love to her「彼は彼女に愛の告白をした」(かれはかのじょにあいのこくはくをした). She confessed her feelings to him「彼女は彼に自分の気持ちを告白した」(かのじょはかれにじぶんのきもちをこくはくした). The word can also be used in other contexts, such as confessing a crime or a mistake, but it is most frequently associated with romantic confessions.
