    酸化: oxidation. The Japanese noun '酸化 (さんか)' refers to the chemical process of oxidation, where a substance combines with oxygen or loses electrons. This term is commonly used in scientific contexts, such as chemistry or biology, but can also appear in everyday language when discussing rusting or spoilage. For example: Iron undergoes oxidation and rusts「鉄は酸化して錆びる」(てつはさんかしてさびる). The oxidation of food causes it to spoil「食べ物の酸化は腐敗の原因です」(たべもののさんかはふはいのげんいんです). Note that '酸化' is often used in compound words, such as '酸化防止剤 (さんかぼうしざい)' (antioxidant).

    北極: North Pole. The Japanese noun '北極 (ほっきょく)' refers to the 'North Pole', the northernmost point on Earth. It is often used in geographical contexts to describe the Arctic region, its climate, or related phenomena. For example: The North Pole is very cold「北極はとても寒い」(ほっきょくはとてもさむい). Polar bears live near the North Pole「北極の近くにホッキョクグマが住んでいる」(ほっきょくのちかくにほっきょくぐまがすんでいる). This word is also used in scientific or environmental discussions about the Arctic.
