    For example, white paint absorbs very little visible light. However, at an infrared wavelength of 10×10 −6 metre, paint absorbs light very well, and has a high emissivity. Similarly, pure water absorbs very little visible light, but water is nonetheless a strong infrared absorber and has a correspondingly high emissivity.

    The meteors are sometimes visible before dawn, because the radiant is 32 degrees away from the Sun. They usually appear at a rate of 1–2 per hour as "earthgrazers", meteors that last several seconds and often begin at the horizon. Because most of the Daytime Arietids are not visible to the naked eye, they are observed in the radio spectrum ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindustani_verbs

    The light verb (also called "subsidiary", "explicator verb", and "vector" [20]) loses its own independent meaning and instead "lends a certain shade of meaning" [21] to the main or stem verb, which "comprises the lexical core of the compound". [20] While almost any verb can act as a main verb, there is a limited set of productive light verbs. [22]
