rain drops
Shower's falling units
Rain drops are individual droplets of water falling from clouds during precipitation.
The two-word form emphasizes the discrete particles rather than the weather event: Rain drops splattered against the window.
Children sing about rain drops falling on their heads.
The compound *raindrop* is more common when describing a single droplet or the phenomenon generally.
