Verwendungsmuster:
[someone] goes to the supermarket
Häufiger Fehler:
Learners sometimes say "I went to market" when they mean a modern indoor supermarket. In English, "the market" often suggests an open-air place with many small sellers, while a "supermarket" is a large indoor store. Learners also sometimes use "grocery" alone (e.g., *I went to the grocery*) instead of the more natural "grocery store" or "supermarket" in many varieties of English.
Synonyme
grocery store (Very close in meaning; in American English this is a common term, but it can also refer to smaller food shops, while a supermarket is usually larger.)
|
food store (A more general and slightly less common term; it emphasizes that the store sells food but not necessarily the large size and wide range of goods of a supermarket.)
Antonyme
convenience store (A convenience store is much smaller, has fewer products, and is focused on quick purchases, which contrasts with the large size and wide range of goods in a supermarket.)
