What is does "Nuchingusui" mean in Japanese, please? Hello, could anyone help me to understand what "Nuchigusui" is, please? The word is used in a short film about Okinawa Island. I am asked to translate it into Chinese. I'd appreciate any help. Thank you!

ぬちぐすい（nuchigusui) is an Okinawan dialect, which literally means 「命の薬（inochi no kusuri)」. ぬち＝命＝life ぐすい＝薬＝medicine It can mean anything that heals you in anyway. Or anything that makes you feel good and cheers you up. Delicious food, beautiful scenery, someone's kindness, mother's love etc.
