Let's look into the Horizon...
Wait, but which one?
What do you mean which one? There's only one, ne?
Ah Ha! Wrong! In Japanese there are two kinds of horizons and two different words for them.
Japanese: 水平線
Reading: suiheisen
Meaning: horizon, when talking about water
Kanji: water flat line
Japanese: 地平線
Reading: chiheisen
Meaning: horizon, when talking about land
Kanji: ground flat line
Now let's relax and sip some tee while looking at any horizon you can get your eyes on.
