näinäkoitus

Naina koitus is a term sometimes used colloquially to refer to the period of time just before dawn when it is still dark. This term is not a scientific or official designation and its usage is informal. It is often associated with a quiet and still atmosphere that precedes the sunrise. The exact duration of this period can vary depending on geographical location and the time of year. During naina koitus, artificial lights are typically still in use, and the transition to daylight has not yet begun. The word itself is a combination of "Naina," which in some contexts can refer to the eyes or a feminine name, and "koitus," an archaic or less common word related to conjunction or meeting, hinting at the meeting of night and day. It is sometimes used in literature or poetry to evoke a specific mood or setting. The concept is similar to terms like "pre-dawn" or "twilight," though naina koitus specifically emphasizes the deepest part of the night's end.
