Perspective-遠近

Enkin. Perspective.

えん far
きん near

Two students were outside my office sketching the corridor. I went to have a look. One guy tried to explain enkin to me as

big see and small see.
Asko small Koko big. Meaning "over there" is small. "Here" is big.

If you imagine a picture of a corridor. That's pretty much spot on!

Clever boy!

I thought him "near" and "far" as well as perspective
