- 1a/mæɡˈnetɪk/relating to magnetism磁的
Belonging to magnetism, or made by it — the invisible force that pulls iron and steel and that makes a compass needle turn.
這個 magnetic 是在講「跟磁力有關的」,用在科學課、地理課的名詞前面,像 magnetic field(磁場)、magnetic north(磁北)。它不是說某個東西會吸東西,而是說「這件事屬於磁力這個現象」。

這個 magnetic 講的是東西本身「會吸」或「吸得上去」,摸得到、用得到,例如白板上的磁鐵板、包包上的磁扣。跟 sense 1 的差別在於:sense 1 是在講磁力這個現象,這裡是在講手上這個物品的性質。
