사용 패턴：
[someone] supports/rejects [communism]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse "communism" with "community" because the words look similar; however, "community" means a group of people, not a political system. Another common mistake is treating "communism" as a countable noun (e.g., *"a communism"*); it is almost always uncountable and used without *a/an*.
유의어
socialism (Broader and usually less radical; can allow some private property, while communism in theory abolishes it.)
|

|

|
one-party state (Stresses the political structure of single-party rule; not limited only to communist systems but often used for them.)

반의어

|
