Example Word

風: wind. The Japanese noun '風 (かぜ)' primarily means 'wind'. It refers to the natural movement of air, especially in the form of a current of air blowing from a particular direction. This word is commonly used in weather-related contexts. For example: The wind is strong today「今日は風が強い」(きょうはかぜがつよい). I can hear the sound of the wind「風の音が聞こえる」(かぜのおとがきこえる). Additionally, '風' can sometimes be used metaphorically to describe trends or influences, such as in '時代の風 (じだいのかぜ)', meaning 'the wind of the times', referring to the trends or spirit of an era.
