loving and supporting one’s country

Feeling or showing strong love and support for your own country.

用法パターン: [someone] is patriotic (about [their country])
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes confuse "patriotic" with "nationalist". "Nationalist" can sound more political or extreme, while "patriotic" usually just means loving and supporting your country. Also, do not say *"He has a patriotic"* (you need a noun: "He has a patriotic spirit" or "He is patriotic").
類義語
nationalistic (Often more political and sometimes negative, suggesting an extreme or aggressive kind of patriotism.) | devoted (More general about strong loyalty; only shows patriotism when it is clear the devotion is to one’s country.)
対義語
unpatriotic (Direct opposite; not showing love or loyalty to one’s country.) | disloyal (General opposite of loyalty; can describe someone who does not support their country.)
