The ideogram(umi) is composed of the radical for water, and the character 毎, which originally represented all or each. Together they form the idea of ​​a place where all water gathers, that is, the sea.

This construction reflects the ancient vision of the immensity and depth of the oceans as a great reservoir of water.

Night at sea or night sea is in the senseあなたと私だだ
