西文电磁学名词汉译经过一个演化过程。在１９世纪中叶西学东渐的潮流中，初期中国领先，首先使用古汉语的“电”及“电气”翻译“ｅｌｅｃｔｒｉｃ”及少量派生词。该译法传至日本后，明治维新时期（１８６８～１８７３年）日本以“电”字为基础构成新词，译出更多的西文名词。维新后的日本学西方已超过中国，从戊戌变法（１８９８年）起，这些词汇沿着中国人“通过日本来吸收西学”的模式逐渐传回中国而成为汉语译名。“磁”及以“磁”为基础构成汉字词汇的译法则是日本首先采用的，沿着同一模式也成为汉语译名。这是中日文化交流的一个组成部分。
Western electromagnetism noun translated through an evolutionary process. In the midst of the mid-nineteenth century, the trend of western learning was very early. China first led the way by using “electric” and “electric” in ancient Chinese to translate “electric” and a few derivatives. After the translation reached Japan, during the period of Meiji Restoration (1868 ~ 1873), Japan formed new words based on the word “Dian” and translated more English nouns. After the reform of Japan, the West has surpassed China. Starting from the Reform Movement of 1898 (1898), these terms gradually translated back to China along the Chinese path of “absorbing Western learning through Japan” and became the Chinese translation. The “magnetism” and the translation method of “kong” based on the formation of kanji vocabularies were first adopted by Japan and along the same pattern as the Chinese translation. This is an integral part of Sino-Japanese cultural exchange.
