1
the exact wording of something
The exact words that someone uses to say or write something.
รูปแบบการใช้:
the formulation of [a question/statement/rule]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes confuse "formulation" with "formula". "Formulation" is usually about how something is expressed in words (or how it is developed), while "formula" is a fixed set of symbols or a set method. Also, learners may say "formulation for a question"; the more natural preposition is "formulation of a question".

process of developing plans or ideas
The careful work of making a plan, rule, or idea in a clear and complete way.
รูปแบบการใช้:
the formulation of [a policy/plan/theory/strategy]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may use "do" instead of "be involved in" or "take part in" (e.g., "I did the formulation of the plan"). A more natural phrasing is "I took part in the formulation of the plan" or "I helped with the formulation of the plan." Another confusion is with "formation"; "formation" is about something coming into existence or being shaped, while "formulation" is about the deliberate planning or structuring of it.
คำพ้องความหมาย
development (More general; can refer to many kinds of growth or creation, not only structured planning.)
|
drafting (Stresses writing the first versions of documents; a bit more concrete than "formulation".)
|
design (Emphasizes planning structure and function, often for systems or products.)
คำตรงข้าม
abandonment (Refers to giving up or stopping work on a plan, which contrasts with creating it.)

specific mixture of ingredients
A special recipe or mixture of chemicals, medicine, or other substances, with exact amounts of each part.
รูปแบบการใช้:
a [new/liquid/oral] formulation of [a drug/product]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes use "formula" when they mean the physical product. In technical or marketing English, "formula" can appear on labels, but "formulation" is often used in scientific and pharmaceutical contexts to stress the exact mixture used in a product. Also, some learners say "formulation of medicine" when they mean a particular version, where "a new formulation of the medicine" is more natural.

|
recipe (Informal in this context; suggests a set of ingredients and steps, but not used in strict technical writing.)
|
