physical and mental energy
Energy and strength that make a person feel alive, active, and healthy.
사용 패턴：
[someone] is full of vitality
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse "vitality" with the adjective "vital" and say *"I feel very vitality"* instead of "I feel very lively" or "I have a lot of vitality." Remember that "vitality" is a noun, so it is used with verbs like "have," "lose," or "gain" (e.g., "She has great vitality," not *"She is vitality").

|

|

|

biological ability to stay alive
In science and medicine, the ability of cells, tissues, or living things to stay alive and work normally.
사용 패턴：
the vitality of [cells/tissue/organisms]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners may confuse this technical sense with general "energy" and use it in everyday contexts like *"I checked the vitality of my muscles after the gym"*; in everyday speech, "strength" or "health" is more natural, and this sense of "vitality" is mostly for scientific or medical writing.
유의어
viability (The standard technical term in biology for whether cells or organisms can live and develop; often interchangeable, though "viability" is more common in scientific writing.)
|
life force (More general and sometimes non-technical; can sound less precise or even spiritual compared to the strictly biological meaning of "vitality" in this context.)
반의어
necrosis (A medical term for the death of cells or tissue, which directly opposes the idea of living, functioning tissue in "vitality".)
|
nonviability (Technical opposite of "viability"; means cells or organisms cannot live or develop, the absence of biological vitality.)
