eager or inclined to go to war
Wanting or ready to fight or go to war; very aggressive and not peaceful.
用法パターン：
[someone]/[a group] is warlike; warlike [attitude/stance/policy]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use "warlike" when they only mean "angry" or "upset." "Warlike" is stronger and suggests a real willingness to start or support war or serious violence, not just a bad mood. Another confusion is with "military": "warlike" describes an attitude toward conflict, while "military" describes armies, soldiers, or defense in a more neutral way.

用法パターン：
warlike [preparations/scene/state/equipment]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use "warlike" instead of "military" for neutral descriptions, for example saying "warlike base" instead of "military base." "Warlike" often suggests that war is near or that the situation is prepared for conflict, not just that it belongs to the army. Use "warlike" when you want to suggest an active connection to war or fighting, not just a general link to the armed forces.
類義語
martial (Formal; commonly used in set phrases like "martial law" or "martial arts," relating to war or fighting.)
|
military (Neutral, everyday term for things connected to an army or defense forces; less emotional than "warlike.")
対義語
civilian (Describes things or people not part of the armed forces and not connected to war.)
|
peaceful (Describes scenes or activities with no sign of war or fighting.)
