How to say "wireless" in Japanese
- no-adjectiveThe straightforward loanword for 'wireless', used in product and technology contexts such as wireless devices and connections. Nuance is that of the English term itself, heard as-is in shops and specifications.
- 無線むせんno-adjectiveThe Japanese word for 'wireless', meaning not using wires; it also reads naturally as 'radio' in contexts like radio communication. Choose it for native phrasing, especially for radio-related wireless communication.
