involuntary shaking of the body
A small shaking you cannot control in part of your body, usually in your hands, often because of illness, age, or feeling nervous.
استعمال کا انداز:
a tremor in [body part]
عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse the noun 'tremor' with the verb 'tremble'. Use 'tremor' as a thing (noun): 'He has a tremor in his hands.' Use 'tremble' as an action (verb): 'His hands tremble when he writes.'

|
