HelpNarciso, Daffodil and Jonquil
Hi !!!
In Italian Narciso is not just the mythological character (Narcissus) but also the common used word of the flower known in English as Daffodil and Jonquil.
So as we are nearly in springtime...
What do you think of Narciso (m), Jonquil and Daffodil?
Which is the most evocative of the flower?
Which genders are Jonquil and Daffodil?
Daffodil seems masculine to me.
Jonquil instead is very feminine and delicate. I know why: there is a link with 'giunco' that Is the Italian for "reed" that reminds me something smooth, calm, delicate, graceful plus there is a link with the nane Junko that has a feminine meaning as well. It is very common in manga & anime so when I was a child I used to think that it were "giunco".
Let me know :)
