Youth
Adolescence, Springtime Of One's Life
noun, verbal noun, の adjective
The time of young spring for humans is really just their youth. Just like plants in spring, your adolescence is when you start growing to your full potential! You might even say it's the springtime of one's life.
This generally refers to the period when you’re an energetic teenager and young adult. It can have connotations of exhilarating experiences and bittersweet feelings, as well as nostalgic memories.
This is a jukugo word that uses the on'yomi readings of the kanji. You haven't learned the on'yomi for 春 yet, so here's a mnemonic to help you:
Don't let your youth go to waste, because it will be over soon (しゅん)!
