Example Word

発想: idea. The Japanese noun '発想 (はっそう)' refers to an 'idea' or 'concept', particularly one that is creative or innovative. It is often used in contexts where original thinking or a fresh perspective is involved. For example: His idea was brilliant「彼の発想は素晴らしかった」(かれのはっそうはすばらしかった). We need a new idea for this project「このプロジェクトには新しい発想が必要だ」(このプロジェクトにはあたらしいはっそうがひつようだ). The word can also imply the process of coming up with ideas, as in '発想力 (はっそうりょく)', which means 'creative thinking ability'.
