暮れ
くれ · kure · JLPT N3 · noun
end
🌇📅 暮 = sun 日 sinking under grass 莫: the day, then the year, runs out
莫 originally meant sunset: the sun 日 going down between grasses. Another 日 was added below to keep that meaning. 暮れる means to grow dark or come to an end, so 年の暮れ is the dusk of the year, the year end.
