虚しい
Wednesday 17 June 2026
だからかな...どんどん絵描いて何言われても本当かな？って考えちゃうのは。ものすごく寂しいし虚しい。
The quote is from bluesky.
※ 虚しい；空しい（むなしい）
- [adj-i] empty; void; vacant
- [adj-i] vain; fruitless; futile; ineffective
- [adj-i] lifeless
However, I came across munashii in the film 亀は意外と速く泳ぐ. In the context I understood it as “shallow” (for behavior of certain people) but I don’t recall the full sentence.
WaRan has:
空しいmunashii leeg; ijdel; [w.g.] ijl; loos; [fig.] hol; vergeefs; betekenisloos; inhoudsloos
NB
※ 胸（むね、むな） 1. [n] [むな is usually used in compounds] chest; breast 2. [n] breasts; bosom; bust 3. [n] heart 4. [n] lungs 5. [n] stomach 6. [n] heart; mind; feelings
