agree  Catherine Muir: Also, but less common, 'embun salju'. See Stevens, p. 264, at http://books.google.com.au/books?id=hVo2ZDYbL6gC&printsec=fr...

lapisan es tipis yang ada di permukaan suatu benda


Explanation:
Ketika cuaca sangat dingin/bersalju, maka pepohonan, rumah, dll. yang terpapar udara luar akan dilapisi es tipis di permukaannya. Ada yang menyebutnya embun beku, walaupun saya pribadi kurang begitu setuju dengan istilah ini.


Example sentence(s):
  • The grass was covered with frost

dinginnya alam


Explanation:

Bebas sajalah menerjemahkan puisi. Yang diutamakan bukan rincian teknis (misalnya wujud dari frost), tetapi kesan yang timbul.

Misalnya: Akar yang dalam tidak tercengkeram dinginnya alam

Yang penting pembaca menjadi paham bahwa sesuatu yang tertanam kuat, tidak mudah terpengaruh.
