Autumn Leaves, Red Leaves, Leaves Turning Red
noun, verbal noun
You've got some deep red leaves. You'll usually see those during autumn, which makes this autumn leaves. Just red leaves is fine too, though. Note that this refers not only to the leaves themselves, but also the process of them changing color, so this can also mean leaves turning red.
こうよう, もみじ
This is a jukugo word that uses the on'yomi readings of the kanji. As you haven't learned this reading for 葉 yet, here's a mnemonic to help you: Your favorite pastime during autumn is sitting there admiring the autumn leaves while eating some yogurt (よう). There's no better combination than autumn leaves and yogurt. Note that there's also an additional reading, もみじ, used to refer to the Japanese maple tree, or its leaves, but we'd like you to focus on こうよう for this one.
