building where monks live

A religious house where monks or other religious people live and pray together.

사용 패턴: a/an [adjective] monastery
자주 하는 실수:
Learners often confuse "monastery" with "church" or "temple". A church or temple is where people go to worship, but they do not usually live there. A monastery is mainly a place where religious people live. Learners also mix up "monastery" and "convent"; in modern English, "convent" is more often for nuns, while "monastery" is more often for monks.
유의어
abbey (Often a large or important monastery or convent, sometimes with its own church; used especially in historical or Catholic contexts.) | convent (Similar type of religious house, but more commonly used for communities of nuns rather than monks.) | cloister (Can mean a covered walkway in a monastery, or more generally a monastic place of life; slightly more literary or architectural.)
반의어
city (Represents busy, secular life, which contrasts with the quiet, religious, separated life usually associated with a monastery.)

사용 패턴: the [adjective] monastery [verb]

Learners may not realize that "monastery" can mean both the building and the group of people who live there. When the word is used as the subject of a verb ("the monastery decided"), it usually means the community, not the physical building.
유의어
religious community (A broad, neutral term for people who live a religious life together; not limited to monastic life but often used similarly.) | brotherhood (Emphasizes the close social and spiritual bond among male members of a religious or monastic group.) | order (Refers to an organized group within a church that follows a particular rule; may include multiple monasteries, not just one.)
