How it's used
Used primarily in physics and engineering contexts, this term functions as a technical noun rather than a colloquial descriptor. While it is the standard translation for electrical resistance, speakers often use the English word resistance directly in professional settings to avoid ambiguity. It is frequently paired with values or units like 歐姆 to describe specific components in a circuit.

Common mistake
