易混淆词
confederation
EN: A confederation is a looser union where member states retain more sovereignty, while a federation implies a stronger central authority.
zh: 邦联是一种较为松散的联盟,成员国保留更多主权;而联邦则意味着更强的中央权威。
federalism
EN: 'Federalism' is the political philosophy or system of government; 'federation' is the actual entity or organization formed.
zh: ‘联邦主义’是政治哲学或政府体制;‘联邦’是实际形成的实体或组织。
拼写提示
EN: Do not confuse 'federation' with 'confederation'; the prefix 'con-' changes the meaning to a looser alliance. Also note the single 'r' in 'federation' (not 'federration').
zh: 不要将‘federation’与‘confederation’混淆;前缀‘con-’将其含义变为更松散的同盟。另外注意‘federation’中只有一个‘r’(不是‘federration’)。
