smaller group inside a group

A smaller part of a larger group, where the people or things in it share something special with each other.

Käyttömalli: a subgroup of [a larger group]
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners sometimes use "subgroup" when they only mean "group". Use "subgroup" when you want to show that this is a smaller part of a larger group. Also, some learners write it with a hyphen ("sub-group"), but the standard modern spelling is one word: "subgroup".
Synonyymit
subset (More general and often used for sets, data, or categories; slightly more technical in everyday speech.) | section (Suggests a part of something, but not always based on shared special features like a subgroup is.) | division (Emphasizes a split or organizational unit; may sound more formal or administrative.)
Antonyymit
whole group (Refers to all members together, not just a smaller part with special shared features.)

group-theory subset forming a group

In higher mathematics, a smaller set inside a group that still follows all the rules needed to be a group on its own.

Käyttömalli: a subgroup of [a group]
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners sometimes confuse "subset" with "subgroup" and think any subset of a group is a subgroup. In group theory, a subset is only a subgroup if it is closed under the operation, contains the identity, and contains inverses of its elements.
Synonyymit
subgroup (of a group) (There is no common single-word synonym in mathematics; the precise term is required in this technical context.)
Antonyymit
supergroup (In group theory, a supergroup contains the given group as a subgroup, reversing the subset relationship.)
