strong unfriendliness or antagonism

A strong feeling or show of dislike and anger toward a person, group, or idea.

نمط الاستخدام: hostility toward [someone/something]
خطأ شائع:
Learners sometimes confuse "hostility" with "hospitality" because they look similar. "Hostility" means unfriendliness or anger, while "hospitality" means warm and friendly welcome. Also, learners may try to use it as an adjective (e.g., *a hostility person*); the correct adjective is "hostile" (e.g., *a hostile person*).
المرادفات
antagonism (Stresses active opposition and tension, often in a continuing relationship.) | resentment (Focuses more on a long-lasting bitter feeling than on outward behavior.)
الأضداد
friendliness (Direct opposite, showing warm and kind behavior instead of cold or angry behavior.) | goodwill (Emphasizes a positive, supportive attitude rather than negative, opposing feelings.)

fighting or warlike actions

Military fighting or war between groups or countries, usually said as "hostilities" in the plural.

نمط الاستخدام: hostilities between [groups/countries]
خطأ شائع:
Learners may not realize this sense is usually plural: we normally say "hostilities" when talking about war or fighting, not "a hostility". They may also confuse this with general emotional hostility; in military or political news, it often specifically means armed conflict.
المرادفات
combat (More specific to the actual physical fighting between armed forces.) | conflict (Broader and can include political or social struggle as well as physical fighting.)
الأضداد
peace (General state with no war or fighting between groups or countries.) | truce (A formal agreement to stop fighting, often temporary, that brings hostilities to a halt.)
المتلازمات اللفظية
cease hostilities |end hostilities |outbreak of hostilities |resume hostilities |hostilities break out |armed hostilities
