I came across this phrase in a book:
緑なす半島
Obviously (and also confirmed by Weblio) it is describing a quality of the peninsula, but I'm curious as to what exactly it means, and how/when it can be used.
I found a forum discussion on its use as compared to なる
, but it doesn't seem to me to be used in the same way as where I found it. (It generally concluded that is was a transitive version of なる
...which I can't say is wrong, but I don't think I really understood what they were trying to say, and I think it requires a particle {を
?} in order to be used like that.)
