smaller part of an existing division

A smaller part of something that is already in parts, like a small part of a company, area, or group.

Mẫu sử dụng: [a subdivision] of [something]
Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners sometimes use "subdivision" when they only mean a simple part or section. Use "subdivision" when you talk about a part that comes after an earlier division (a part of a part), especially in formal or technical contexts. Also, do not confuse this meaning with the housing meaning, where "subdivision" refers to a neighborhood of houses.
Từ đồng nghĩa
section (Often used for any part of something; less formal and less specific about being a part of a part than "subdivision".)
Từ trái nghĩa
whole (Refers to the complete thing, not broken into divisions or subdivisions.)

planned housing development area

A planned area of land outside or on the edge of a town, where the land is cut into many small pieces and many similar houses are built.

Mẫu sử dụng: to live in a [subdivision]
Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners sometimes think "subdivision" always means any small part of something. In North American English, it often specifically means a planned neighborhood of houses. In this sense, you usually say you "live in a subdivision" rather than you are "a subdivision" or you "make a subdivision".
Từ đồng nghĩa
housing development (Very close in meaning; more common in some regions of English and slightly clearer for learners than "subdivision".)
Từ trái nghĩa
open countryside (Refers to natural or farm land without dense planned housing developments.)

process of dividing further

The action of cutting or splitting something that is already in parts into even smaller parts or groups.

Mẫu sử dụng: the subdivision of [something] into [parts]
Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners often confuse the process meaning with the result meaning. When you talk about the action, use patterns like "the subdivision of X into Y". When you talk about the smaller parts themselves, use patterns like "a subdivision of X".
Từ đồng nghĩa
partition (Focuses on the act of separating into parts; does not always carry the idea that something was already divided before, which "subdivision" suggests.)
Từ trái nghĩa
unification (Means bringing parts together into one whole, the opposite of dividing something into smaller parts.)

smaller rhythmic unit of a beat

In music, one of the small, even notes you get when you cut a beat into two, three, or more equal parts.

Từ đồng nghĩa
rhythmic division (A more descriptive phrase used in explanations; slightly broader and less standard as a set term than "subdivision" in music theory.)
Từ trái nghĩa
undivided beat (Refers to a beat that is not broken into smaller rhythmic units.)
