Also known as fighting, fight, brawl, scuffle
Combat is a purposeful violent conflict between multiple combatants with the intent to harm the opposition. Combat may be armed (using weapons) or unarmed (not using weapons). Combat is resorted to either as a method of self-defense or to impose one's will upon others. An instance of combat can be a standalone confrontation or part of a wider conflict, and its scale can range from a fight between individuals to a war between organized groups. Combat may also be benign and recreational, as in the cases of combat sports and mock combat.
Combat is purposeful violent conflict between people or groups where at least one side intends to harm the other, and it can involve weapons or no weapons at all. It matters because it appears across human activity—from personal self-defense and recreational sports to large-scale warfare—and reflects how people resolve conflicts or try to impose their will on others.
