Okay, we know that today's theme isn't glamorous, but it's a very real part of spring in much of the country.

MUD 泥

Mud is dirt that is wet, soft, and sticky.

Something is muddy if it is covered in or full of mud.
mud　は、ぬれて軟らかく、ぬかるんだ状態になった土、つまり泥のことです。

muddy　は、泥まみれ、泥だらけ、という意味です。

Take off your boots before you come in. You'll get mud all over the floor.
Our car got stuck in the mud. We had to call a tow truck to pull us out.
The spring thaw makes dirt roads muddy and hard to drive over.
That river water is too muddy to drink right now. Let the dirt settle to the bottom of the water bottle first.

Keep your feet clean!
