noun
supernatural phenomenon
Refers to events or occurrences that cannot be explained by natural laws, such as ghosts, psychic powers, or miracles.
彼は超自然現象に強い興味を持っている。
He has a strong interest in supernatural phenomena.
Often used interchangeably, but 超常現象 may emphasize paranormal aspects beyond ordinary experience, while 超自然現象 directly contrasts with natural phenomena.
Compound of 超 (chō, 'super-') + 自然 (shizen, 'nature') + 現象 (genshō, 'phenomenon'). A straightforward modern coinage for 'supernatural phenomenon'.
