Translation

スイッチ / 切り替えスイッチ / 電灯スイッチ

Meaning

A switch is a small device you press, flip, or slide to turn something on or off, typically an electrical light or appliance. It is also commonly used as a verb: 'Switch off the light.' or 'Switch the TV on.' Japanese learners will recognise the word as a loanword (スイッチ), but note the English pronunciation is slightly different from the Japanese katakana pronunciation.

Examples

• 電気のスイッチを切ってください。
  Please turn off the light switch.
• スイッチを押すと扇風機が動きます。
  Press the switch and the fan starts.
