unwanted involvement or invasion

The act of going into someone’s space, life, or private matters when they do not want you there.

الگوی کاربرد: an intrusion into [someone's] [privacy/life/space]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse "intrusion" with "interruption". An interruption is usually a short break in talk or activity, while an intrusion suggests entering someone’s private space or life in a way that feels wrong or too personal. Another common mistake is using the wrong preposition; the most natural collocation is "intrusion into" someone’s privacy, life, or space, not *"intrusion on"* or *"intrusion to"* in standard written English.
هم‌معنی‌ها
invasion (Stronger and more dramatic, often suggests force and large scale, but also used for privacy like 'an invasion of privacy'.) | encroachment (More formal; suggests slow or gradual intrusion into rights, time, or space.) | interference (Focuses on involvement that stops someone acting freely; less about physical or spatial entry.)
متضادها
respect (Respect for someone’s boundaries or privacy means not intruding on them.) | privacy (Intrusion breaks or reduces privacy; privacy is the condition without intrusion.)

unauthorized entry or break-in

When someone gets into a place or computer system without permission.

الگوی کاربرد: an intrusion into [a place/system]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners may overuse "intrusion" instead of more common everyday words like "break-in" when talking about crime in homes or shops.

هم‌معنی‌ها
break-in (Common in everyday English for illegal entry into a building, especially to steal.) | breach (Often used in formal or technical contexts for breaking security, rules, or an agreement.) | hack (Informal/technical; usually refers to unauthorized entry into a computer system rather than a physical place.)
متضادها
authorized access (Describes entry that has official permission and is the opposite of intrusion in a security context.) | secure perimeter (A protected boundary that has not been breached or entered without permission.)
ترکیب‌های رایج
home intrusion |security intrusion |network intrusion |detect an intrusion |report an intrusion |intrusion alert
