book used to study a subject
A book that teachers and students use to learn a school subject.
用法パターン：
a textbook for [a subject]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse "textbook" with "notebook". A textbook is a book you study from; a notebook is a blank book you write in. Some also think a "textbook" must be a printed book, but it can also be digital if it is designed for teaching a subject.
