Ground around a church with graves

The land around a church where people are often buried and where you can see graves or stones.

Muundo wa matumizi: in the [churchyard]
Kosa la kawaida:
Learners sometimes use "churchyard" to mean any place around a church, including the car park or garden, but it usually suggests the area with graves and tombstones. Another common confusion is between "churchyard", "graveyard", and "cemetery": all are burial places, but "churchyard" and "graveyard" are typically next to a church, while a "cemetery" may be separate from any church. Also, some learners mistakenly write it as two words ("church yard"); the correct form is one word: "churchyard".
Visawe
graveyard (Very close in meaning, but a graveyard is often specifically next to a church; in modern use it can sometimes be interchangeable with churchyard.) | cemetery (A more general word for a burial ground, not necessarily next to a church building.)
