@Sarri.greek The verb "lighten" is not used to refer to lightning. DTLHS (talk) 21:22, 30 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

O! Thank you @DTLHS, and, sorry @ArbDardh. I'll blank it then. I do not know how to say It is... (lightnings are falling from the sky) sarri.greek (talk) 21:25, 30 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
Well, maybe I was wrong, we have "To burst forth or dart, as lightning; to shine with, or like, lightning; to flash." but it seems like a poetic sense. DTLHS (talk) 21:26, 30 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
As far as I'm concerned, such a word does indeed exist. Take a look here, specifically at the second meaning at 'lighten²' (you may have to press the drop-down 'Translations, word origin and more definitions' first). ArbDardh (talk) 22:31, 30 July 2019 (UTC)ArbDardhReply
