What is the word for "Slow raining"? [closed]
Today in my city, it's raining very slowly. What is this called in English?.
I am from India. In Hindi we say 'Rimjhim'. What is it called in English?
Solution 1:
We use the words "drizzling" or "sprinkling" here.
They both mean "to rain or let fall in fine drops"
If it's very, very light rain, you can use the word "mist". "Drizzling" usually implies a little harder rain than "sprinkling".
Solution 2:
Have you looked up the synonyms for rain in a thesaurus, like here for example?
The normal answer is sprinkle at first, or maybe drizzle if it persists or is a bit heavier.
