Nasıl kullanılır

The noun 'custom' is often used in formal and semi-formal contexts to describe traditional practices or behaviors that are common to a particular group or society. A notable grammatical nuance is that 'custom' can be used with the definite article 'the' to refer to a specific tradition, as in 'the custom of shaking hands when meeting someone.' Learners should be cautious not to confuse 'custom' with 'habit,' as the former typically refers to a shared practice, whereas the latter refers to an individual's repeated behavior.
