smaller group inside a group
A smaller part of a larger group, where the people or things in it share something special with each other.
Модель уживання:
a subgroup of [a larger group]
Поширена помилка:
Learners sometimes use "subgroup" when they only mean "group". Use "subgroup" when you want to show that this is a smaller part of a larger group. Also, some learners write it with a hyphen ("sub-group"), but the standard modern spelling is one word: "subgroup".
Синоніми

|
division (Emphasizes a split or organizational unit; may sound more formal or administrative.)
Антоніми

group-theory subset forming a group
In higher mathematics, a smaller set inside a group that still follows all the rules needed to be a group on its own.
Модель уживання:
a subgroup of [a group]
Поширена помилка:
Learners sometimes confuse "subset" with "subgroup" and think any subset of a group is a subgroup. In group theory, a subset is only a subgroup if it is closed under the operation, contains the identity, and contains inverses of its elements.
Синоніми

Антоніми
