official order or requirement
A rule or order from someone in power that says people must do something
사용 패턴：
a mandate to [do something]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse 'mandate' with 'recommendation'. A 'mandate' means something is required by an authority, often with legal force, while a 'recommendation' is only advice. Learners also sometimes use *'make a mandate'*; in natural English we usually say 'issue a mandate', 'impose a mandate', or 'introduce a mandate'.
유의어
requirement (More general and less formal; not always from an authority.)
|
order (Stresses direct command; can be less legal and more personal than 'mandate'.)
반의어
recommendation (Suggests something is advised but not required or enforced by law.)

to officially order or require
To say in an official way that people must do something
사용 패턴：
[someone] mandates that [something] [verb]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes follow 'mandate' with an infinitive and a person, like *'mandate people to do something'*. While this can appear in some varieties of English, more natural patterns are 'mandate that people do something' or 'mandate the use of something'. Also, 'mandate' is quite formal; in everyday speech 'require' is more common.
유의어
require (More common and general; less strongly tied to formal authority than 'mandate'.)
|
command (Sounds stronger and more personal, often used for people giving direct orders.)
반의어
allow (Suggests giving permission instead of forcing something to be done.)

authority from voters to govern
The right and support to lead or change things that a leader gets when many people vote for them
사용 패턴：
a mandate for [policy or change]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners may confuse this meaning with the 'official order' sense. Here, 'mandate' is about political support and right to act, usually after an election, not about a specific rule people must follow. It is often used with words like 'clear', 'strong', 'popular', and with phrases such as 'mandate for change'.
유의어
authority (More general; does not specifically include the idea of support from an election.)
|
public backing (Focuses on support, not on the formal political right to act.)
반의어
lack of legitimacy (Suggests a leader does not have the accepted right or support to govern.)

Official power or duty that someone receives to do a special job or speak for other people
사용 패턴：
a mandate to [do something] for [someone]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use 'mandate' to mean any 'task' or 'project'. A 'mandate' here is not just work to do; it is official power or duty formally given to someone. It is often used in business, government, and international organizations.
유의어
authorization (Focuses on permission; 'mandate' often carries a broader or more formal set of powers or duties.)
|
commission (Can stress being officially asked to carry out a particular task, sometimes with payment.)

to give official authority
To give a person or group the official power or duty to do a special job
사용 패턴：
[someone] mandates [someone] to [do something]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners may mix this sense with the 'order/require' sense. Here, the focus is on giving power or responsibility, not on forcing someone to follow a rule. Also, in formal English it is common to say 'mandate someone to do something' or 'be mandated to do something', not *'mandate someone for do something'*.
유의어
authorize (Very close in meaning; slightly less formal and more common in everyday business language.)
|
commission (Emphasizes being formally asked or hired to carry out a particular task.)

forbid (To refuse permission or strongly say that someone must not act, opposite of granting authority.)

A territory that an international group asks one country to control and care for after a war
사용 패턴：
a mandate over [a territory]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners may assume this is just another word for 'order' or 'rule'. In history and international law, 'mandate' can mean a special kind of territory controlled by another country. This meaning is mostly used in academic or historical texts.
유의어
trust territory (A technical term in international law; similar idea but used more with the United Nations.)
