What is another word for EMBERS?

Pronunciation: [ˈɛmbəz] (IPA)

Embers are the glowing remains of a fire that hint at its former warmth and power. They can also be called coals, ashes, cinders, or smoldering remnants. Coals are the long-lasting, smoldering embers that burn hot and bright, while ashes are the powdery remains of wood or other organic matter consumed by fire. Cinders are the small, blackened fragments that fall away from the fire, often glowing and hot. Smoldering remnants suggest a quieter, more subdued fire that nonetheless still has some life left in it. Whatever term you choose, embers are a reminder of the fire's past glory and a promise of its potential to burn again.
