Example Word

正面: front. The Japanese noun '正面 (しょうめん)' refers to the 'front' or 'front side' of something. It is commonly used to describe the main or direct facing side of an object, building, or even a person. For example: The front of the building is impressive「建物の正面は印象的です」(たてもののしょうめんはいんしょうてきです). He stood directly in front of me「彼は私の正面に立った」(かれはわたしのしょうめんにたった). This term can also be used metaphorically to describe facing a situation or challenge head-on, as in '正面から向き合う (しょうめんからむきあう)' which means 'to face something directly'.
