Japanese Word for Tear
We use Japanese word “涙(なみだ-namida)” for translating English word “Tear” into Japanese. I showed this Japanese word image on the left side of this page.
And we have a few other same meaning words in Japan such as “涕(なみだ-namida)” and “泪(なみだ-namida)”. And following words are some “なみだ” related word; “落涙(らくるい-rakurui)”, “涙声(なみだごえ-namidagoe)”, “感涙(かんるい-kanrui)” and “感涕(かんてい-kantei)” etc.
The word “落涙(らくるい-rakurui)” means “to shed tears” and the word “涙声(なみだごえ-namida goe)” means “tearful voice”. And “感涙(かんるい-kanrui)” and “感涕(かんてい-kantei)” are same meaning words and mean “tears of gratitude”.
