Remove something from something else

To remove something from another thing that it is joined to.

用法パターン: to detach [something] from [something]
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes say *detach off* (e.g. *detach the sticker off the box*). In standard English, use *detach [something] from [something]* (e.g. *detach the sticker from the box*). Learners may also use *detach* too generally where *remove* is more natural; *detach* usually suggests things that are physically joined or fastened.
類義語
disconnect (Often used for electrical or electronic connections like power, internet, or phone lines.)
対義語
attach (Means to fasten or join something to something else, the opposite of removing it.)

Send people away for special duty

To send a person or group away from their usual team or place to do a special job.

用法パターン: to detach [someone/a group] from [unit/place] to/for [purpose]
よくある間違い:
Learners may confuse this sense with the physical meaning and try to use it with objects, as in *detach the worker* instead of *detach a worker from the team*. This sense is about moving people or groups between units, not about physically taking off parts.
類義語
assign (More general and common for giving someone a task or position; does not always imply separating them from a larger unit.)
対義語
attach (In organizational or military contexts, *attach* means to place people with a unit, the opposite of sending them away from it.)

Emotionally distance yourself

To choose not to feel very involved or emotional about something, so that it does not affect you strongly.

用法パターン: to detach yourself from [a situation/feelings/outcome]
よくある間違い:

類義語
distance yourself (Very close in meaning; slightly more common in everyday speech and can be physical as well as emotional.)
対義語
involve yourself (Means to take an active and emotionally engaged part in something, the opposite of stepping back from it.)

Become separated from something

To come off or come away from something you were joined to.

類義語
separate (A broad term; does not always imply that something was physically fastened before coming apart.)
対義語
adhere (Means to stick firmly to a surface, the opposite of coming away from it.)
