Mine is “palimpsest”. I first encountered this word while reading The Secret History by Donna Tartt.
Definition: a manuscript or piece of writing material on which the original writing has been effaced to make room for later writing but of which traces remain.
I love that there’s a word for this.
One in Spanish that I really liked: arrebol. The definition is “the reddish colour of the sky during twilight”. It’s a pretty word for a pretty concept. 🌅
Love that
