academic study of society
A school or university subject that studies how people live together in groups and how societies work.
Schemat użycia:
to study [sociology] at [a school/university]
Częsty błąd:
Learners sometimes confuse "sociology" with "socializing" (spending time with friends). "Sociology" is a school or university subject, not a social activity. Another mistake is adding an article when talking about the subject in general, e.g. saying *"I study the sociology"* instead of *"I study sociology"*.
Synonimy
social science (Broader term that includes sociology and other related fields such as anthropology, economics, and political science.)
|
