relating to academic study or research
Connected with serious study and research at a high academic level, usually at a university.
Käyttömalli:
a scholarly [article/book/journal/work]
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners sometimes use 'scholarly' to describe anything related to school, like 'scholarly classroom' or 'scholarly exam'. In modern English, 'scholarly' is usually used for advanced academic research or writing, not everyday school things. Use 'school' or 'academic' for general school-related topics.
Synonyymit
academic (Very close in meaning, but can be broader, including anything related to education, while 'scholarly' emphasizes research quality and depth.)
|
research-based (Stresses that something is based on research evidence; less about style or tone than 'scholarly'.)
Antonyymit
popular (Describes work written for a general audience rather than for experts or researchers, the opposite focus of 'scholarly'.)

|
learned (Very close in meaning; can sound slightly old-fashioned in everyday speech.)
