Sound State

Example

本堂の中はしーんとしていた。

The temple hall was completely silent.

Nuance

Used when a place is completely silent, with no voices or sounds at all. It is also used when nobody reacts to what someone said and the mood in the room goes dead. In manga it is often written in the empty space of a panel, marking the silence itself rather than a sound.
