navigation by reflected sound
a way some animals find things by listening to echoes
Padron ng paggamit:
echolocation (in [animal])
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Echolocation is not the same as simply having good hearing; it specifically involves using echoes from sounds that are produced.
Mga kasingkahulugan
biosonar (often used for echolocation in animals, especially marine mammals.)
Mga kasalungat
vision (finding things by sight rather than by echoes.)

Mga Halimbawa
- 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.
Mga Halimbawa para sa Nag-aaral
- 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
Padron ng paggamit:
echolocation for [purpose]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners often confuse echolocation with radar; radar uses radio waves, while echolocation uses sound.
Mga kasingkahulugan
sonar (a broader term; echolocation is often used for biological or biomimetic sonar.)
Mga kasalungat
radar (a different ranging method that uses radio waves instead of sound.)

Mga Halimbawa
- The robot uses echolocation to map the corridor when the lights are off.
- Engineers tested echolocation methods for obstacle detection in drones.
- Echolocation can be effective underwater because sound travels well in water.
Mga Halimbawa para sa Nag-aaral
- The device uses echolocation to find walls.
- Echolocation works by listening to echoes.

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

Mga Halimbawa
- After months of practice, he used echolocation to move confidently through unfamiliar rooms.
- The documentary showed how echolocation can help some blind people judge distance.
- She made small clicks and listened for changes in the echo as part of her echolocation routine.
Mga Halimbawa para sa Nag-aaral
- He learned echolocation to walk safely.
- She uses clicks for echolocation.

the act of echo-based detection
finding something by using echoes
Padron ng paggamit:
echolocation of [object/area]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
This is a broad sense; in many contexts it specifically refers to animals (especially bats and dolphins).
Mga kasingkahulugan
echo ranging (a general descriptive term for measuring location by echoes.)
Mga kasalungat
direct observation (identifying something without relying on reflected sound.)
Mga kolokasyon
the echolocation process
|echolocation of targets
|echolocation in darkness
|echolocation in water
|echolocation research
|echolocation study
Mga tema
science
|sound
Mga Halimbawa
- Echolocation is an efficient way to detect objects when visibility is low.
- The lecture explained echolocation as a process of measuring time delays in echoes.
Mga Halimbawa para sa Nag-aaral
- Echolocation uses echoes to detect objects.

echolocation used by bats
the way bats use echoes to find things
Mga Halimbawa
- Researchers analyzed bat echolocation to understand how bats track fast-moving insects.

fixed phrase
technical
sound used to create echoes
a sound an animal makes to hear echoes
Mga Halimbawa
