사용 패턴：
a patriot of [country]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse 'patriot' (a person) with 'patriotism' (the feeling or idea) and 'patriotic' (the adjective). For example, 'He is a patriotism' is incorrect; it should be 'He is a patriot' or 'He has strong patriotism' or 'He is very patriotic'. Learners may also use 'nationalist' when they simply mean 'patriot'; however, 'nationalist' can have a stronger or more negative political meaning in many contexts.
유의어
nationalist (Often stronger and more political; can suggest putting one's country above others in an aggressive way.)
|
loyalist (Emphasizes loyalty to a country or ruler; does not always include the emotional love suggested by 'patriot'.)
|
flag-waver (Informal; suggests loud or showy patriotism, sometimes with a slightly negative tone.)
반의어
traitor (Someone who betrays their country, the opposite of supporting and defending it.)
