Mẫu sử dụng:
[someone] works in psychiatry
Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners often confuse "psychiatry" (the medical field) with "psychology" (the scientific study of the mind, not necessarily medical). Another mistake is using it like a countable noun, e.g., *"He is a psychiatry"* instead of "He works in psychiatry" or "He is a psychiatrist." Learners may also say *"I went to psychiatry"* when they should say "I went to a psychiatrist" or "I went to the psychiatry department."
Từ đồng nghĩa

|
mental health medicine (Informal descriptive phrase; broader and less precise than the standard technical term "psychiatry".)
Từ trái nghĩa
general medicine (Focuses mainly on physical illnesses, contrasting with psychiatry’s focus on mental and emotional disorders.)
