Definition: Twilight is the period just before sunrise and just after sunset when there is still light but the sun is below the horizon.

There are three kinds of twilight, civil twilight, nautical twilight and astronomical twilight. Each commences and ends when the sun is 6,12 and 18 degrees below the horizon.

The further from the equator you get the more noticeable twilight is, lasting all night in the summer months. On the equator it tends to go from dark to light and back again in a matter of minutes.
Usage: The twilight zone is a strange time of day when it is neither completely dark nor completely light. Ancient superstitions held that this was the time of day demons and witches made their appearance.
