In the blog of “Hawaii Island – Language –“, I mentioned that there are 130 words to express rain in Hawaiian, so that I searched about Japanese one, and I found a book “Dictionary of rain words”.

This book is a dictionary of words related to rain that number About 1200 words. I thought it is about a bit more than 130 in Hawaiian? but no way, almost 10 times! What a Japanese words.

It is time rainy season (Tsuyu) in Japan, there are 32 rain words for example.
