The falling of snow, snow falling. There happens to be a real word for it. The word is shinshin. Go ahead. Use in a sentence, I know you want to. Two hive for the most creative, chosen by me on the payout of this post.

Shin shin snowfall? (深々?)

"深々– shin shin – is a Japanese onomatopoeia that is used to describe the sound of snow falling silently. A word for a sound of no sound. I did not realize that we had such a beautiful word in Japanese before moving to America".

It is interesting to read that not even a native Japanese (Kaori Chen) knew about one of their words.
