following social norms and expectations
The state of acting like other people in a group and following social rules or customs.
الگوی کاربرد:
conformity to [social norms/expectations]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse "conformity" with "confirmation". "Conformity" is about being similar to others or following rules and norms; "confirmation" is about showing that something is true. Learners may also overuse "with"; for social norms, both "conformity to social norms" and "conformity with social norms" occur, but "to" is more common in this sense.

|

متضادها
individuality (Emphasizes being different from others and expressing personal uniqueness instead of matching the group.)
|

compliance with rules or standards
The state of following a law, rule, or standard exactly as required.
الگوی کاربرد:
conformity with [law/rule/standard]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *"conformity of the law"* when they mean following the law. Use "conformity with the law" or "in conformity with the law". Also, do not confuse the noun "conformity" with the verb "to conform"; say "the machine is in conformity with the standard", not *"the machine conformity the standard"*.
