to match or be in agreement
To be the same as or very like something else, so that they agree in facts, numbers, or details.
사용 패턴：
[something] corresponds to/with [something]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners often confuse "correspond" with "respond". "Respond" means "to answer" or "to react" (e.g. "He responded to my email"), while "correspond" in this sense means "to match" or "to be the same as" (e.g. "The email address does not correspond to the name"). Learners also worry about "correspond to" vs. "correspond with". Both are used; "correspond to" is slightly more common for general matching, while "correspond with" is frequent when comparing facts or accounts ("The two accounts correspond with each other").

to write letters or emails
To write letters or emails to someone and get letters or emails back, usually for some time.
사용 패턴：
[someone] corresponds with [someone]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use "correspond" alone to mean "answer" (e.g. "He corresponded to my message"), which is incorrect. In this sense, you must say "correspond with" or "correspond by" to show how you communicate ("He corresponded with me by email"). For a simple reply, use "answer" or "respond" instead.
유의어
communicate (Very general word for sharing information; does not specifically mean written messages.)
|
exchange letters (Describes the same activity but is more explicit and less formal.)
반의어
ignore (To refuse to answer or pay attention, which is the opposite of keeping up written contact.)
|
cut off contact (To stop all communication, which contrasts with continued correspondence.)

to have a direct equivalent
To have a clear, direct partner or match in another group or system, like one thing for each thing.
사용 패턴：
[something] corresponds to [something]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners often do not see the difference between this technical sense and the more general "match/agree" sense. Here, "correspond" is about a structured relationship between two sets (often one-to-one), as in mathematics, data tables, or coding systems. In less technical talk, it is usually enough to say that things "match" or "are the same" instead of "correspond".
유의어
map onto (Technical term, especially in mathematics and computing, for one set being paired with another.)
|
equate to (Stresses being treated as equal in value or meaning, often more general and less strictly one-to-one.)
반의어
differ from (Indicates there is no direct equivalence between elements.)
|
be independent of (Shows that two sets or systems do not directly relate or correspond to each other.)
