释义 | electrical phenomenon (once / 63205 pages) n WORD FAMILY electrical phenomenon: electrical phenomena USAGE EXAMPLESThe electrical phenomenon is known to occur on Earth, but it was first observed on Mars by the Pathfinder mission in the late 1990s. National Geographic(Oct 19, 2016) Many other electrical phenomena are observed in the mountains. Longstreth, Thomas Morris, Reading the Weather(2012) The present writer would suggest the probability of its having been an electrical phenomenon.
