The natural satellite orbiting the Earth, visible by reflected sunlight. In Spanish, 'luna' can refer to the celestial body itself, but it can also encompass the light emitted or reflected by the moon, a concept for which English typically uses multi-word phrases like 'moonlight' or 'lunar light' rather than a single equivalent noun.
