よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use 'humanities' instead of 'humanity' for this meaning. 'Humanity' means all human beings as a group, while 'the humanities' (usually plural, with 'the') means academic subjects like literature, history, and philosophy. Also, 'humanity' in this sense is uncountable and does not take a plural form (*'humanities' is wrong here).

'Humanitarian' is usually an adjective (a humanitarian effort) or a person (a humanitarian) who works to help others. Also, avoid using an article before this uncountable meaning in most cases (say 'with great humanity', not '*with a great humanity').

This sense is often used with modifiers like 'shared', 'common', or 'loss of'.
