Example Word
身近: close. The Japanese adjectival noun '身近 (みぢか)' means 'close' in the sense of being near or familiar. It is used to describe something that is physically close, emotionally close, or easily accessible. For example: The park is close to my house「その公園は私の家に身近です」(そのこうえんはわたしのいえにみぢかです). This topic is close to my heart「この話題は私にとって身近です」(このわだいはわたしにとってみぢかです). It can also describe something that is part of one's daily life or experience, such as '身近な問題 (みぢかなもんだい) (a familiar problem)'.
