اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes use 'stereotype' to describe a single person instead of the fixed idea about a type of person. For example, saying *"He is a stereotype of Italians"* when they mean *"He fits the stereotype of Italians"* or *"He behaves in a stereotypical way."* Learners also sometimes confuse 'stereotype' with 'type'; 'type' is neutral, while 'stereotype' usually suggests an unfair or oversimplified idea.
معنی
Fixed, oversimplified belief about a group
