körperliches

The German adjective "körperliches" translates to "physical" in English. It is the neuter singular form of the adjective "körperlich." This adjective is used to describe anything pertaining to the body, its form, its functions, or its physical existence.

For example, one might refer to "körperliches Training" (physical training) or "körperliches Wohlbefinden" (physical well-being). It can also describe objects or phenomena that are tangible and exist in the physical realm, as opposed to something abstract or spiritual. "Ein körperliches Objekt" would mean a physical object.

In a medical context, "körperliche Untersuchung" refers to a physical examination. The term emphasizes the tangible, material aspect of something. It is distinct from mental, emotional, or spiritual aspects. The root word is "Körper," meaning body. Therefore, "körperliches" directly relates to the body and its attributes.
