friendly and welcoming to guests
Very friendly and kind to guests, and making them feel comfortable and welcome.
Padron ng paggamit:
[someone] is hospitable to [guests/visitors]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse "hospitable" with "hospital" because the words look similar. "Hospitable" describes a person or place that is welcoming to guests, while a "hospital" is a building where sick or injured people are treated. Also, learners sometimes say *"hospitable with" someone; the usual preposition is "hospitable to" someone.

giving good conditions for growth or life
Giving good conditions so that life, growth, or new ideas can exist or develop well.
Padron ng paggamit:
[something] is hospitable to [life/growth/ideas]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes think "hospitable" only describes people. In this sense, it often describes places, climates, systems, or attitudes that support life, growth, or ideas (e.g. "hospitable environment," "hospitable to change"). It is usually followed by "to," not "for" (say "hospitable to life," not *"hospitable for life").
Mga kasingkahulugan
favorable (General word for good or supportive conditions; less focused on comfort.)
|
conducive (More formal; often used for conditions that help a particular result, such as learning or discussion.)
Mga kasalungat
inhospitable (Stresses harsh or poor conditions that are not suitable for life, growth, or visitors.)
|
hostile (Emphasizes actively harmful or strongly unfavorable conditions or attitudes.)
