Middle Of The Night
Late At Night
noun
The deep night is the middle of the night. It doesn't get any deeper than that before you start coming out of the night to start the next day.
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. You've seen these readings before, but the や reading for 夜 is still pretty new, so here's a mnemonic refresher:
What do you do in the middle of the night? You watch the Yankees (や). You should be asleep, but instead you're up watching baseball highlights from the Yankees late at night.
