Example Word

内心: innermost. The Japanese noun '内心 (ないしん)' refers to one's innermost thoughts, feelings, or true intentions that are not openly expressed. It is often used to describe what someone is truly thinking or feeling beneath their outward appearance or behavior. For example: He smiled, but his innermost feelings were different「彼は笑ったが、内心は違った」(かれはわらったが、ないしんはちがった). She was nervous, but her innermost thoughts were calm「彼女は緊張していたが、内心は落ち着いていた」(かのじょはきんちょうしていたが、ないしんはおちついていた). This word is commonly used in contexts where there is a contrast between outward appearance and inner reality.
