I recently discovered a new word: komorebi
It is a Japanese word that refers to "sunlight shining through the trees"
Related, but less often used, is the word hamorebi
which refers to "the sun peaking through the leaves" instead of the branches or trunk
What strikes me most about these words...the mere fact of them....is that they indicate that these are things people actually talk about, or have needed to talk about.
Otherwise these words wouldn't exist.
I would like to know the word for "sun shining through long grass".
"accidental discovery of small new lives in nature you hadn't encountered before"
These are a few things I would like to be talking about.
