Mga kahulugan

adjective A2 property
1

full of physical or mental energy

Having a lot of energy and being very active or lively.

Padron ng paggamit: [someone] is energetic
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse 'energetic' with 'energy' and say *'I am energy'*. The correct form is 'I am energetic' or 'I have a lot of energy.' Another mistake is overusing 'very' (*'very very energetic'*); usually one 'very' is enough.
Mga kasingkahulugan
lively (Focuses on being bright and full of life; can also suggest being cheerful or animated.) | active (Emphasizes doing many things or moving a lot; slightly more neutral than 'energetic'.) | dynamic (Suggests energy plus strong drive or forceful personality, often in a positive way.)
Mga kasalungat
tired (Describes someone who lacks energy at a particular moment.) | lethargic (Stronger than 'tired'; suggests unusually low energy and slow movement.) | sluggish (Emphasizes very slow movement or reaction due to low energy.)

adjective B2 property
2

involving strong or intense effort

Needing or showing a lot of effort and activity; very strong or intense.

Padron ng paggamit: [someone] makes energetic [effort]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use 'strong' instead of 'energetic' for actions, saying *'a strong campaign'* or *'a strong effort'*. While possible in some cases, 'energetic campaign/effort' more clearly suggests continuous and active work. Also avoid *'energy campaign'*; the adjective must be 'energetic'.
Mga kasingkahulugan
vigorous (Very close in meaning; often used for actions, exercise, or debate that is strong and forceful.) | intense (Emphasizes the high level or strength of effort or feeling, not only physical movement.)
Mga kasalungat

3

having high physical energy (technical)

Used in science to describe particles, light, or other things that have a lot of physical energy.

Padron ng paggamit: [something] is energetic
Karaniwang pagkakamali:

Mga kasingkahulugan
high-energy (Standard technical term; slightly more explicit and common than 'energetic' in scientific writing.)
Mga kasalungat
low-energy (Describes particles or radiation with relatively little physical energy.)

Mga tema
