Involving two or more different areas of study or work that are used together.
Patrón de uso:
interdisciplinary [noun]
Error frecuente:
Learners sometimes confuse "interdisciplinary" with general words like "international" or "multicultural". "Interdisciplinary" is specifically about different fields of study or work, not about different countries or cultures. Another mistake is trying to use a non-standard noun *interdisciplinarity* or *interdiscipline* in basic contexts instead of phrases like "interdisciplinary work" or "interdisciplinary approach".
Sinónimos

|

Antónimos
