模擬

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

• Structure: 模擬, read もぎ, denotes simulating or imitating the relevant conditions of a real event.
• Basic usage: 停電時の状況を模擬した recreates a training scenario; 川の流れを模擬する実験 models a natural process.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

• Training simulation and experimental imitation
  • Both reproduce selected conditions rather than the original event itself, and mark the modeled phenomenon with を.
