About the five senses (seeing, hearing, touch, taste, and smell), or about things you feel with these senses.
استعمال کا انداز:
sensory [noun]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "sensory" with "sensual". "Sensory" is neutral and means related to the physical senses. "Sensual" often suggests pleasure, especially sexual or physical pleasure. For example, "sensory memory" is correct, but "sensual memory" sounds sexual and is usually wrong in scientific or neutral contexts.

Describing nerves or body parts that take information from the eyes, ears, skin, etc. to the brain, not the ones that move muscles.
استعمال کا انداز:
sensory [nerve/neurons/pathways/receptors]
عام غلطی:
Learners may mix up "sensory" with "motor" in biology. "Sensory" brings information in from the senses to the brain; "motor" sends signals out from the brain to the muscles. Some learners also confuse "sensory" with "sensitive"; "sensitive" means easily affected, while "sensory" here is a structural or functional label in the nervous system.
ہم معنی الفاظ
afferent (Technical term used in anatomy and physiology; specifically contrasts with "efferent" or "motor" pathways.)
متضاد الفاظ
motor (In neurophysiology, describes nerves and pathways that send signals from the brain to muscles, the functional opposite of sensory nerves.)
