relating to visual images on screens
Using or showing pictures, icons, and other images, especially on a computer screen.
الگوی کاربرد:
graphical [interface/display/application]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse "graphical" with "graphic". In technology and design, "graphical" is more common in phrases like "graphical user interface" or "graphical editor". "Graphic" alone is more often used for images in general or for shocking descriptions (e.g., "graphic violence").

visual (More general; not limited to computers or design, can refer to anything seen.)
|
pictorial (Often used for printed or artistic images rather than software or screens.)

shown using graphs or diagrams
Showing information with graphs, charts, or diagrams instead of only words or numbers.
الگوی کاربرد:

هممعنیها
diagrammatic (Focuses more specifically on diagrams and simplified drawings.)
|
chart-based (Informal and narrower; stresses the use of charts in particular.)
متضادها
numerical (Emphasizes information given as numbers rather than as graphs or diagrams.)

3
very vivid and often shocking detail
Describing something with very clear and strong detail, often about violence or sex, so it feels almost like you see it.
الگوی کاربرد:
graphical [description/scene/content]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners often use "graphical" here when "graphic" is much more natural. For shocking detail, native speakers usually say "graphic violence", "graphic description", not "graphical". "Graphical" in this sense does exist but sounds less common or slightly formal/technical.
هممعنیها
graphic (Much more common; standard word for shocking and very detailed descriptions.)
|
explicit (Stresses that nothing is hidden; not always focused on visual imagination.)
متضادها
restrained (Suggests that details are held back or softened instead of fully shown or described.)
