Paid academic or training position
Money and a position that help someone study, do research, or get special training, usually at a university or hospital.
Gebruikspatroon:
a fellowship in [field]
Veelgemaakte fout:
Learners often confuse “fellowship” with “internship” and “scholarship.” A fellowship is usually for advanced study or research and often comes after a first degree, while an internship is practical work experience, and a scholarship is mainly money to help pay for regular studies. Also, learners sometimes say *do a fellowship on* instead of the more common *do a fellowship in [field]*.
Synoniemen
scholarship (Often used for money to help students study; a fellowship usually also includes a defined role or position, especially at a graduate or professional level.)
Antoniemen
unpaid position (Describes work or training without financial support, the opposite of the funded nature of a fellowship.)

Friendly feeling in a group
A warm, friendly feeling between people who are together and share the same interests or goals.
Gebruikspatroon:
a sense of fellowship among [people]
Veelgemaakte fout:
Learners sometimes use “fellowship” as a countable noun in this sense (for example, *many fellowships between us*). Here it is usually uncountable: you say *a sense of fellowship*, *true fellowship*, or simply *enjoy fellowship*, not *a fellowship* when you mean the general feeling of being close to others.
Synoniemen
camaraderie (Very close in meaning; often used especially for friendly feeling among people who work or spend a lot of time together.)
Antoniemen
isolation (Describes being alone or cut off from others, the opposite of shared friendship and togetherness.)

Group with shared interest
A group or club of people who have the same interest, goal, or belief and do things together.
Gebruikspatroon:
a fellowship of [people]
Veelgemaakte fout:
Learners sometimes confuse this group meaning with the emotional sense of fellowship. When you talk about the group itself, use articles and plurals normally (for example, *a youth fellowship*, *three fellowships*). When you mean the feeling of togetherness, it is usually uncountable, as in *a sense of fellowship*.
Synoniemen
association (A general word for an organized group; “fellowship” often suggests a smaller, more personal or religiously oriented group.)
