1
reduce social or political division
To make a disagreement or society less divided into extreme opposing sides.
వాడుక నమూనా:
depolarize [a debate/society/group/electorate]
సాధారణ తప్పు:
Do not confuse it with depopulate, which means to reduce the number of people in a place.
పర్యాయపదాలు
defuse (suggests reducing tension in a conflict or argument)
|
moderate (suggests making views less extreme)
|
bridge divides (emphasizes bringing opposing groups closer together)
విరుద్ధపదాలు
polarize (means to divide people or opinions into strongly opposing sides)
|
radicalize (means to make views more extreme)

2
reduce cell membrane charge difference
When a nerve or muscle cell depolarizes, the electrical difference across its membrane becomes smaller.
వాడుక నమూనా:
[a neuron/cell/membrane] depolarizes; depolarize [a neuron/cell/membrane]
సాధారణ తప్పు:
In physiology, depolarize is not the same as repolarize; repolarize means to return toward the resting electrical state after depolarization.
పర్యాయపదాలు
excite (broader term; suggests making a nerve or muscle cell active)
|
activate (less technically precise; means to cause activity)
విరుద్ధపదాలు
hyperpolarize (means to increase the electrical charge difference across a cell membrane)
|
repolarize (means to restore the membrane toward its resting polarized state)

ఉదాహరణలు
- When sodium channels open, the neuron begins to depolarize.
- The drug can depolarize cardiac muscle cells and affect the rhythm of the heart.
- A strong enough stimulus will depolarize the membrane and trigger an action potential.
అభ్యాసకుల ఉదాహరణలు
- A nerve cell depolarizes before it sends a signal.
- The membrane depolarized quickly.

remove physical polarization
To make polarized light, radiation, or a signal no longer strongly polarized.
వాడుక నమూనా:
depolarize [light/radiation/a signal/a material]
సాధారణ తప్పు:
This technical sense is usually about polarization as a physical property, not about political disagreement.
పర్యాయపదాలు
unpolarize (rare and less common; means remove polarization)
|
randomize polarization (more explicit technical phrase, especially for light)
విరుద్ధపదాలు
polarize (means to give light, radiation, or a material a particular polarization)

reduce electrode or battery polarization
To reduce a chemical or electrical effect that makes an electrode or battery work less efficiently.
వాడుక నమూనా:
depolarize [an electrode/a cell/a battery]
సాధారణ తప్పు:
This sense is mainly technical and is different from depolarizing people or opinions.
పర్యాయపదాలు
reduce polarization (clearer descriptive phrase used in technical explanation)
|
counteract polarization (emphasizes opposing the unwanted effect)
విరుద్ధపదాలు
polarize (means to produce polarization at an electrode or in a cell)
