three-dimensional
Having three dimensions (length, width, and height); spatial. The term describes objects or representations with perceivable depth.
Moderne Kinofilme werden oft in dreidimensionaler Technik gezeigt, was ein räumliches Seherlebnis erzeugt.
Modern cinema films are often shown using three-dimensional technology, which creates a spatial viewing experience.
The word is clearly built from its parts: 'drei' (three), 'Dimension' (dimension), and the adjective ending '-al'. So it literally means 'with three dimensions'.
Für die Planung benötigen wir ein dreidimensionales Modell des Gebäudes.
For the planning, we need a three-dimensional model of the building.
This adjective is often used in technical or artistic contexts. Common combinations are 'dreidimensionale Darstellung' (three-dimensional representation), 'dreidimensionaler Raum' (three-dimensional space), and 'dreidimensionaler Effekt' (three-dimensional effect).
Der 3D-Drucker erstellt eine dreidimensionale Darstellung des Objekts.
The 3D printer creates a three-dimensional representation of the object.
In everyday language and in technology, the abbreviation '3D' is used very frequently. It has exactly the same meaning as 'dreidimensional' (three-dimensional).
Wir haben den Film in 3D gesehen.
We saw the film in 3D.
spatial
Both words can describe a representation or an object with perceptible depth. „Räumlich“ is more general and emphasizes the connection with space, whereas „dreidimensional“ specifically refers to length, width, and height. When these three dimensions are important, „dreidimensional“ is the more precise choice.
Die dreidimensionale Darstellung des Hauses zeigt seine Tiefe.
The three-dimensional representation of the house shows its depth.
Die räumliche Darstellung des Hauses zeigt seine Tiefe.
The spatial representation of the house shows its depth.
