Brugsmønster:
condensation of [substance]
Condensation happens when warm, moist air touches a cooler surface or cools down.
A lecsapódás akkor történik, amikor a meleg, nedves levegő hidegebb felülettel érintkezik, vagy lehűl.
In the water cycle, condensation turns water vapor into liquid droplets.
A víz körforgásában a lecsapódás a vízgőzt folyékony vízcseppekké alakítja.
Lowering the temperature causes condensation inside the sealed container.
Læringseksempler
Condensation turns gas into liquid.
A lecsapódás a gázt folyadékká alakítja.
Typisk fejl:
Learners may use "condensation" when they mean "concentration" (making something stronger, not changing state).

Brugsmønster:
condensation in [the air/atmosphere]
Fog forms when condensation happens near the ground.
Köd akkor képződik, amikor a levegőben lévő pára a talaj közelében kicsapódik.
As the air rises and cools, condensation creates clouds.
Ahogy a levegő felemelkedik és lehűl, a kondenzáció felhőket hoz létre.
High humidity increases the chance of condensation in the atmosphere.
Læringseksempler
