navigation by reflected sound
a way some animals find things by listening to echoes
Pola penggunaan:
echolocation (in [animal])
Kesalahan umum:
Echolocation is not the same as simply having good hearing; it specifically involves using echoes from sounds that are produced.
Sinonim
biosonar (often used for echolocation in animals, especially marine mammals.)
Antonim
vision (finding things by sight rather than by echoes.)
Kolokasi
bat echolocation
|dolphin echolocation
|use echolocation
|echolocation ability
|echolocation system
|echolocation calls
|echolocation pulses
|echolocation signals
|echolocation behavior
|navigate by echolocation
Tema

Contoh
- Bats rely on echolocation to avoid obstacles in the dark.
- Scientists recorded echolocation calls to study how dolphins hunt.
- The cave fish showed reduced vision but strong echolocation-like sensing.
Contoh untuk pembelajar
- Bats use echolocation at night.
- Echolocation helps dolphins find fish.

locating objects with sound echoes
a way to find objects by sending sound and listening to the echo
Pola penggunaan:
echolocation for [purpose]
Kesalahan umum:
Learners often confuse echolocation with radar; radar uses radio waves, while echolocation uses sound.
Sinonim
sonar (a broader term; echolocation is often used for biological or biomimetic sonar.)
Antonim
radar (a different ranging method that uses radio waves instead of sound.)

human navigation by clicking sounds
a way some people use echoes to know where things are
Pola penggunaan:
learn echolocation; use echolocation to [do something]
Kesalahan umum:
It does not mean using a machine; in this sense it can be a learned human skill.
Sinonim
click-based navigation (describes the common technique used in human echolocation.)
Antonim
visual navigation (moving around mainly by using sight rather than echoes.)

the act of echo-based detection
finding something by using echoes
Pola penggunaan:
echolocation of [object/area]
Kesalahan umum:
This is a broad sense; in many contexts it specifically refers to animals (especially bats and dolphins).
Sinonim
echo ranging (a general descriptive term for measuring location by echoes.)
Antonim
direct observation (identifying something without relying on reflected sound.)
Kolokasi

|echolocation of targets
|echolocation in darkness
|echolocation in water
