Aww poor dear feels attacked. Don't worry honey🫂
It's ok sweetheart, here's something that can help you understand
Hm. That is actually a pretty cool website. I've been looking for an alternative to google translate. The Wiktionary can be a little tedious at times.
But how would I use this to prove that "state" and "government" are generally synonymous in most practical contexts?
@etuomaala I'm not @LinkOpensChest_wav but I would like to chime in.
You wouldn't need to, because we're not talking about "most practical contexts".
We're only talking about contexts in which people are protesting the actions of a government.
And in this context, "state" and "government" are synonymous?
@etuomaala normally, yes.
If a word has more than one meaning but one of the meanings is a synonym for the subject which is being talked about, it's a safe bet that this is the intended meaning in that context.
I think maybe a dictionary might be better here than just a translator.
