Is there a Spanish word for sunshine? I know Sol is sun, but the translator doesn't give a word for sunshine.

I think "solana" is not specially used by convalescents.
It's refers to any place where the sun is squarely, as a patio, or part of a house specially designed for sunbathing.
Is common to hear: "El jornalero trabaja en la solana"

Sunshine, literally is: brillo del sol (Sun-Sol, shine-brillar)
In Spanish the exact word does not exist for sunshine, normally it is translated like: sol, luz del sol, luz solar, luz del día, rayo de sol, etc..

I think they just use the word sol in most cases.

It feels good here in the sunshine =
It feels good here in the sun =
Se siente bien aquí en el sol

Hi gustavo
the two examples you have given are verbs. Doesn't sunshine exist as a noun'
