Institutions: What They Are Called in Korean
학교[hak-gyo] – School
First, How would you say school in Korean? It is called 학교[hak-gyo]. You have learned how to say study in Korean already, from our previous posting. It is called 공부 [gong-boo]. An elementary school in Korean in called 초등학교 [cho-deung-hak-gyo], while a middle school is called 중학교 [joong-hak-gyo]. A high school is called 고등학교 [goh-deung-hak-gyo] and a university is called 대학교 [dae-hak-gyo].
학교 가면 영어를 배워야해. [hak-gyo-ga-myeon yeong-uh-reul bae-wo-ya-hae].
When we go to school, we will have to learn English Literature.
내일 학교 아침 9시까지 가면 되는거야? [nae-il hak-gyo ah-cheem ah-hop-shi-gga-ji ga-myeon doe-neun-geo-ya?]
Could I be at the school by 9 AM tomorrow morning?
병원 [byeong-won] – Hospital
What would be one of the most important institutions to know in the Korean language when you are traveling to South Korea? I would say a hospital, or 병원 [byeon-won]. A general hospital in Korean is 종합병원 [jong-hap-byeong-won], while an emergency room is called 응급실 [eung-geup-shil]. A clinic is called 클리닉 [keul-lee-nik], which is how the clinic is pronounced in the Korean language.
아프면 병원으로 가야되 [ah-peu-myeon byeong-won-eu-ro ga-ya-hae].
If you are sick, you have to go to the hospital.
병원에서 준 처방전으로 약국으로 가서 약을 받아. [byeong-won-ae-seo joon cheo-bang-jeon-eu-ro yak-gook-eu-ro gh-seo yak-eul ba-dah].
Take the prescription you got from the hospital, you could go to the pharmacy to get the medications.
*약국 [yak-gook] = pharmacy
*처방전 [cheo-bang-jeon] = prescription
교회 [gyo-hoe] – Church
In traditional Korean beliefs, Confucianism and Buddhism are the most common religious beliefs that ancient Koreans believed in. A religion in Korean is 종교 [jong-gyo]. In the early 1950s, due to the western influence that was common in South Korea, Christianity and Catholicism have spread widely. A church in Korean is called 교회 [gyo-hoe].
교회 나가서 예배를 드려야돼. [gyo-hoe na-ga-seo yay-bae-reul deu-ryeo-ya hae].
I have to go to the church for worship.
일요일은 교회나가야 되서 바빠. [eel-yo-il-eun gyo-hoe-na-ga-ya doe-seo ba-bba].
On Sundays, I am busy because I have to go to church.
경기장 [gyeong-ghee-jang] – Stadium
Many Koreans love their sports. Most of the sports games are held in a stadium. A stadium in Korean is called 경기장 [gyeong-ghee-jang]. Sports in Korean is called 스포츠[seu-po-cheu], which is sports pronounced in the Korean language.
오늘 야구는 어느 경기장에서 하죠? [oh-neul ya-goo-neun eo-neu gyeong-ghee-jang-ae-seo ha-joh?]
Which stadium would the baseball game be held today?
경기장에서 축구를 보자. [gyeong-ghee-jang-ae-seo chook-goo-reul bo-jah].
Let’s watch the soccer game in a stadium

We just have learned how to say different institutions in Korean. How would you actually say an institution in Korean? It is called 기관 [ghee-gwan]. Similarly, you could call the foundations 재단 [jae-dan] in Korean.
Now that you have learned how to say institutions in Korean, you can let your friends know about what you have learned today, and spread the knowledge!
