A sensation is an impression that is captured through the senses.
Sensation is the impression produced by something and captured through the senses . The term, which has its origin in the Latin word sensatĭo , has three meanings and uses in the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) .
For example: "Seeing the state of the school, I had a very ugly feeling" , "The feeling of warmth that the hug produced spread throughout my body" , "There is no more pleasant feeling than drinking a bowl of soup on a winter night" .
Sensation as wonder or forecast
The idea of sensation is also used to name the astonishment that something causes or the success obtained: "My new jacket caused a sensation at the party" , "The singer who is a sensation in Europe will perform next Thursday in the capital of Chile" , "The actor's visit was the sensation of the summer" .
The forecast or prediction of something that will happen can also be called a feeling: "I have the feeling that we will win this game" , "My feeling is that the mayor will not run in the next elections" .
Title of a movie
We cannot overlook the existence of a film called “Sensaciones” (Sensations) . This film was released in 1991 , directed by the Cordero brothers ( Viviana and Juan Esteban ). It is a musical drama. It tells the story of a group of Spanish origin who decide to go to the Andes with the clear objective of recording their next album there, a work in which they will clearly show the influence of the sounds of this Ecuadorian place.
The most significant thing about this production is that it won an award at the Bogotá Film Festival . Specifically, it won the award for best original music, which in this case is halfway between rock and the so-called new age style.
The perceived temperature is estimated from variables such as temperature, wind and ambient humidity.
Series «Beverly Hills, 90210»
In the audiovisual field we cannot ignore the existence of the term sensation in one of the most important series of the 90s . We are referring to "90210" , known in Spain as " Beverly Hills, 90210" . The great American television producer Aaron Spelling was the one behind this fictional product that brought us closer to the experiences of a group of young people from Beverly Hills during their years at high school and university.
The starting point of this series was the arrival at this luxurious American enclave of the Walsh twins, Brandon and Brenda , who will become the fundamental pillar of this gang in which, although money is paramount, there are a series of deficiencies on an emotional and affective level.
The term associated with temperature
It should be noted, on the other hand, that the thermal sensation is what human beings feel according to various variables that affect the environment. It is usual for the thermal sensation to be associated with temperature and other meteorological conditions, although it depends on other personal issues such as the heat produced by the body (measured according to the metabolic rate) and others.
However, a general thermal sensation calculated according to temperature, wind, ambient humidity, etc. is often disseminated: "The thermal sensation is already over thirty degrees and will continue to rise."
