A town, city, or area that has its own local government to manage things like roads, schools, and services.
รูปแบบการใช้:
a municipality; the municipality of [Place]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes use "municipality" to mean any city or town in casual speech, even when the legal or government side is not relevant. In everyday conversation, "city" or "town" is usually more natural unless you are talking about official borders or government structure.

the local government authority
The local government organization that runs a town, city, or area and makes decisions for it.
รูปแบบการใช้:
the municipality [verb] [something]; complain to the municipality
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes confuse the area (the municipality) with the people who govern it. When the word is the subject that makes decisions or provides services, it usually refers to the government body, not just the place. In some varieties of English, learners also wonder about singular vs. plural verbs; "the municipality is" is standard, even though it represents many people.
คำพ้องความหมาย
local government (Very close in meaning; slightly broader and more common in everyday speech.)
|
local authority (Common in British and international English; emphasizes the official power of the body.)
|
city council (Usually refers specifically to the elected decision-making group within the municipality of a city.)
คำตรงข้าม
central government (Refers to the national level of government, which contrasts with the local level represented by the municipality.)
