Definition
模拟 (mó nǐ) means 'to simulate' — recreating a system, process, or environment for training or testing (e.g., a flight simulator). It differs from 模仿 (mó fǎng), which means 'to imitate' a person's actions or style. 仿真 (fǎng zhēn) is a close synonym but often emphasizes electronic or digital emulation.
