rapid back-and-forth physical motion
A fast, small shaking or back-and-forth movement, like when a machine, car, or phone shakes again and again.
Használati minta:
vibration of [something]; feel [a/the] vibration; cause [strong] vibrations
Gyakori hiba:
Learners sometimes confuse 'vibration' with 'vibrator'. 'Vibration' is the shaking movement itself, while 'a vibrator' is a device that produces vibration, often with an adult or technical meaning. Learners may also overuse the singular and avoid the plural, but 'vibrations' is common when talking about repeated or multiple shaking effects (e.g., 'strong vibrations from the engine').
Szinonimák
shaking (More general and informal; does not always suggest repeated rapid movement like technical 'vibration' does.)

Antonimák
stillness (Emphasizes the complete lack of movement, which contrasts with the repeated movement in 'vibration'.)

emotional or social atmosphere
The feeling or mood you get from a person, place, or situation, especially if it seems good or bad.
Használati minta:
give off [good/bad] vibrations; feel [someone’s] vibrations
Gyakori hiba:
Learners often use 'vibration' in this sense where native speakers would say 'vibe'. In everyday speech, 'vibe' is much more common (e.g., 'I get a bad vibe from him') and 'vibrations' sounds a bit spiritual, poetic, or dated unless the speaker is deliberately using that style. Learners also sometimes say 'a vibration with someone' instead of 'a good/bad vibration from someone'.
Szinonimák
vibe (More common and very informal; usually used in the singular ('a good vibe', 'the vibe').)
Antonimák
neutrality (Emphasizes the absence of any strong positive or negative emotional feeling or atmosphere.)
