friendly company that eases loneliness
The good feeling of having another person or animal with you so you are not alone.
Padron ng paggamit:
companionship with [someone/something]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes say "a companionship" as if it were countable (e.g., *"I want a companionship"). In modern English, "companionship" is almost always uncountable; say "I want companionship" or "I want some companionship." Another confusion is with "company": "company" can mean both people with you and a business, but "companionship" only refers to the social/emotional sense of having someone with you.
Mga kasingkahulugan
company (Very common and general; can sound slightly less emotional than "companionship".)
|
friendship (Focuses more on the relationship itself, not just on being together and feeling less lonely.)
|
fellowship (More formal or literary; often suggests shared interests or activities in a group.)
|
togetherness (Emphasizes the warm feeling of being close to others rather than just physical presence.)
Mga kasalungat
loneliness (Describes the painful feeling of being alone without close social contact, which companionship helps to ease.)
|
isolation (Suggests being cut off from other people, often physically or socially, the opposite of shared presence.)
