Mẫu sử dụng:
a mutiny by [group] against [authority]
Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners sometimes use "mutiny" for one person who simply refuses a request. "Mutiny" almost always involves a group acting together against a clear leader or authority. For a single person, words like "disobedience" or "refusal" are more natural.
Từ đồng nghĩa
rebellion (Broader and more general; not limited to soldiers or workers under a specific authority like mutiny often is.)

Learners sometimes use "mutiny" for any kind of disagreement, even small ones. The verb "mutiny" is strong and should be used only when a group clearly refuses to follow its leader or is close to open rebellion.
Từ đồng nghĩa
revolt (Very close in meaning; slightly broader, while "mutiny" more strongly suggests a group under direct command, like soldiers or employees.)
Từ trái nghĩa
comply (Means to do what is asked or ordered, the opposite of rebelling against authority.)
