    青年: youth. The Japanese noun '青年 (せいねん)' refers to a 'youth' or 'young man', typically in the age range of late teens to early thirties. It is often used to describe someone in the prime of their youth, emphasizing their energy, potential, and the transitional phase of life. This term carries a slightly formal tone and is commonly used in literature, news, or formal discussions. For example: The youth is full of dreams「青年は夢でいっぱいだ」(せいねんはゆめでいっぱいだ). He is a promising young man「彼は有望な青年だ」(かれはゆうぼうなせいねんだ). Note that '青年' is gender-neutral in meaning but is often associated with males in practice.
