자주 혼동되는 단어

使用 vs 利用 (りよう)

Riyou often implies using a service or using something to one's advantage, while Shiyou is more about the mechanical act of using a tool.

使用 vs 使う (つかう)

Tsukau is the general, native Japanese verb for 'to use', whereas Shiyou is the formal, Sino-Japanese noun/verb used in writing and signs.

📝

사용 참고사항

Shiyou is more formal than 'tsukau' and is the standard word used in manuals and on public notices. It is usually combined with 'suru' to function as a verb.

⚠️

자주 하는 실수

Learners sometimes use 'Shiyou' when talking about using people (hiring or directing them); 'Tsukau' or 'Yatou' is more appropriate as 'Shiyou' makes people sound like inanimate objects.

📖

어원

Derived from Middle Chinese roots meaning 'to employ' (使) and 'use/utility' (用).

문법 패턴

Noun + する (shiyou suru) to make a verb. Object + を + 使用する (o shiyou suru). Noun + の + 使用 (no shiyou) for usage of something.
🌍

문화적 맥락

In Japan, public signage (like 'Occupied' on a bathroom door) will almost always use '使用中' (Shiyouchu) to maintain a professional and polite tone.
