putting medicine into the body
The act of using a needle to put liquid medicine into someone’s body.
Padron ng paggamit:
give [someone] an injection of [medicine]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners often confuse “injection” with “shot” or “jab.” All can mean the same thing in a medical context, but “shot” and “jab” are more informal. Some learners also say *“make an injection”* instead of the correct *“give an injection”* or *“have an injection.”*
Mga kasingkahulugan
shot (Very common in everyday speech, especially in American English; slightly more informal than “injection.”)
|
jab (Common especially in British and informal speech; often used for vaccines.)
Mga kasalungat
oral medication (Medicine that is taken by mouth instead of being put into the body with a needle.)

One dose of liquid medicine that a doctor or nurse puts into your body with a needle.
Padron ng paggamit:

Mga kasingkahulugan
dose (General term for a measured amount of medicine; does not itself imply the use of a needle.)
Mga kasalungat
overdose (Taking too much medicine; contrasted with a single, proper injection dose.)

adding money or resources
When extra money or energy is added to a company, project, or activity to help it grow or get better.
Padron ng paggamit:
an injection of [money/resources/energy] into [something]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may take this meaning literally and imagine a physical needle. In this sense, “injection” is figurative and usually refers to money, resources, or energy in business or social contexts. It is also common to forget the preposition *“of”* and say *“an injection money”* instead of *“an injection of money.”*
Mga kasingkahulugan
infusion (Often used in business and finance for adding money or resources; slightly more formal than “injection.”)
|
boost (More general and informal; suggests an increase or lift rather than the specific idea of adding resources from outside.)
Mga kasalungat
withdrawal (Removal of money or support, the opposite of adding it.)
|
cutback (A reduction in money or resources, contrasted with adding more through an injection.)

forcing liquid or gas into something
Putting a liquid or gas into something, often using pressure or a pump, for science or industry.
Padron ng paggamit:
the injection of [liquid/gas] into [material/system]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes think this technical use must be about medicine because of the medical sense. In scientific or industrial texts, “injection” often refers to fluids or gases being forced into systems, not into people.
Mga kasingkahulugan
pumping (Focuses on using a pump to move liquid or gas; less general and less technical than “injection.”)
Mga kasalungat
extraction (Taking liquid or gas out of something, instead of forcing it in.)
Mga kolokasyon

Mga Halimbawa
- The process involves the injection of water into deep rock layers.
- Gas injection is used to maintain pressure in the oil reservoir.
- Accidental injection of air into the system can cause damage.
- The researchers studied the effects of chemical injection into groundwater.
- Steam injection improved the efficiency of the extraction process.
Mga Halimbawa para sa Nag-aaral

engine fuel delivery system
The system in an engine that puts fuel into it at the right time and in the right amount.
Padron ng paggamit:
[type] fuel injection system
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may think “injection” here still involves a medical-style needle. In cars and engines, it refers to a mechanical system that sprays fuel, not a medical procedure.
Mga kasingkahulugan
fuel delivery system (Describes the function more generally and is less specific and technical than “fuel injection.”)
Mga kasalungat
carburetion (Older method of mixing fuel with air using a carburetor instead of an injection system.)
Mga kolokasyon

Mga tema

Mga Halimbawa
- Modern cars use electronic fuel injection for better efficiency.
- The mechanic said there was a problem with the injection system.
- Direct injection engines can offer more power and lower emissions.
- Poor fuel injection can cause the engine to misfire.

malicious insertion of code
A way for attackers to put bad code or commands into a computer program or website so they can control it or get data.
Padron ng paggamit:
[type] injection attack
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse “injection” here with a physical act. In computing, it is purely about data and code, not about needles or liquids.
Mga kasingkahulugan
code insertion (More general and descriptive; lacks the strong technical security meaning that “injection” has.)
Mga kasalungat
input validation (Security practice that blocks unsafe input and helps prevent injection attacks.)

one-to-one mathematical function
In math, a function where every different input gives a different output, so no two inputs share the same output.
Padron ng paggamit:
an injection from [set A] to [set B]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes mix up “injection” with “surjection” or “bijection.” An injection is only about different inputs having different outputs, not about covering every element of the codomain.
Mga kasingkahulugan
one-to-one function (More explanatory and common in teaching; “injection” is the standard formal term in higher mathematics.)
Mga kasalungat
many-to-one function (A function where different inputs can share the same output, the opposite property of an injection.)

- We first construct an injection from set A into set B.

Mga Halimbawa para sa Nag-aaral
- In higher math, we learn what an injection is.
- This function is an injection from set A to set B.
- If a function is an injection, no two inputs have the same output.
- They showed there is an injection from the integers to the rationals.
