property
1
in an unthinking, automatic way
In a way that is done like a habit, without thinking or feeling, almost like a machine.
استعمال کا انداز:
to [do something] mechanically
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse this meaning of "mechanically" with the idea of using a machine. In a sentence like "He answered mechanically," it does not mean he used a machine; it means he answered without thinking or feeling. Spelling mistakes such as *"mechanicly"* instead of "mechanically" are also common.
ہم معنی الفاظ
automatically (Often used in both technical and everyday contexts; can mean 'by machine' as well as 'without thinking', while 'mechanically' here focuses on the unfeeling, routine quality.)
متضاد الفاظ
thoughtfully (Stresses doing something with care and real attention, instead of in a flat, automatic way.)

by means of machines
By using machines or mechanical tools, not by hand.
استعمال کا انداز:
[something] is mechanically [past participle]
عام غلطی:
Learners may overuse this technical sense in everyday speech where "automatically" or "by machine" would sound more natural. Also, they may confuse it with the emotional meaning, for example, thinking "He works mechanically" must mean he uses machines, when it often means he works without feeling.
