Sun.
Our solar furnace
The sun, the star at the center of our solar system, is a constant source of life and an inspiration for language.
In addition to being the star of the Milky Way, sun refers to any star that emits light and around which planets orbit.
Sun is also used to denote the sunlight that the sun provides: The sun is shining.
To sun yourself is to expose your body to sunlight.
The verb sunburn is often shortened to sun to indicate that the skin burns, as in I sunned my shoulders.
