the act of using something for a purpose, usually in an effective way

Kullanım kalıbı: the utilization of [something] for [purpose]
Sık yapılan hata:
Learners often use "utilization" in everyday speech where "use" is more natural. For example, "The utilization of my phone" sounds too formal in casual conversation; "the use of my phone" is better. Another common mistake is forgetting the preposition "of" after "utilization"; the natural pattern is "the utilization of something," not "the utilization something."

Learners sometimes confuse general "use" with the more technical idea of "utilization" as a measurable rate. In technical or business reports, "utilization" usually refers to a percentage or level over time (for example, "capacity utilization of 80%") rather than a single act of using something once.
Eş anlamlılar
occupancy (Often used for hotels, buildings, or seats; similar idea of how much capacity is filled or used.) | load (Technical term in engineering or IT for how much of a system's capacity is being used.)
Zıt anlamlılar
