The noun '発明' (hatsumei) means 'invention'. In contrast to '発見' (discovery), which refers to finding something that already existed, '発明' refers to creating completely new devices, technologies, or methods that did not exist before (e.g., '電話の発明' - the invention of the telephone).
名詞「発明」は「これまでに無かった新しい技術、機械、方法などを独自に考え出すこと」を意味します。既存の物を見つける「発見」に対し、「発明」は新しいものを自ら創り出すことを指します。
