납기
The specific day or time when something must be finished or delivered.
Explanation at your level:
납기 is like a due date. If you buy a toy, the store tells you when it comes. That day is the 납기. It is a very important word for shopping and work.
When you work, you have tasks. You must finish them by a certain time. This time is the 납기. People often say 'Please meet the 납기' to make sure work is done fast.
In business, 납기 refers to the delivery schedule. Companies track their 납기 to keep customers happy. If you miss the 납기, the customer might be angry. It is a formal word used in offices.
납기 is a core term in supply chain management. It encompasses the entire process from order placement to final delivery. Professionals often discuss '납기 management' to ensure efficiency and reduce costs in production cycles.
Beyond simple delivery, 납기 represents a contractual obligation. In legal and commercial disputes, the failure to adhere to the 납기 can trigger penalty clauses. Understanding the nuance between 'lead time' and 'delivery date' is crucial for high-level operations.
The concept of 납기 reflects the evolution of industrial time-consciousness. It is a linguistic anchor for modern capitalist efficiency, where time is literally money. Its usage is deeply embedded in the professional lexicon of East Asian trade and manufacturing sectors.

- 납기 means delivery date or deadline.
- It is primarily used in business and logistics.
- Commonly paired with '맞추다' (meet) or '지키다' (keep).
- It is a formal, Sino-Korean term.
Hey there! Let's talk about 납기. In Korean, this word is a combination of 납 (to pay/deliver) and 기 (period/date). Think of it as the 'finish line' for a project or a delivery.
When you order something online, the day it shows up at your door is governed by the 납기. It's not just a suggestion; it's a firm commitment between a seller and a buyer. If you work in business, you'll hear this word constantly because everyone is obsessed with meeting their deadlines!
The word 납기 is rooted in Sino-Korean characters (Hanja). 납 (納) means to offer, pay, or deliver, while 기 (期) refers to a specific time or period.
Historically, this term was used in administrative and tax contexts to denote when tribute or taxes were due to the central government. Over time, it evolved into the modern business term we use today for commercial logistics. It reflects a long history of organized record-keeping in East Asian society.
You will mostly hear 납기 in professional or industrial settings. It is very common to pair it with verbs like 맞추다 (to meet) or 지키다 (to keep).
If you are in a factory or an office, you might say, 'We need to shorten the 납기' to be more competitive. It is a formal term, so you wouldn't use it when talking about meeting a friend for coffee—that would be a 약속 (appointment) instead.
While 납기 is a technical noun, it appears in several key phrases. 1. 납기를 맞추다: To meet the deadline. 2. 납기를 어기다: To miss the deadline. 3. 납기 연장: Extension of the delivery date. 4. 납기 단축: Shortening the lead time. 5. 납기 준수: Strict adherence to the delivery date.
These phrases are essential for anyone working in procurement or manufacturing. Using them correctly shows you understand the rhythm of business operations.
In terms of grammar, 납기 is a standard noun. It doesn't have a plural form because it represents a concept of time. You use it with particles like -가 or -를.
Pronunciation-wise, it sounds like 'nap-gee'. The 'p' sound is soft because it is followed by the consonant 'g'. It rhymes with words like 학기 (semester) or 시기 (period), which share the same 기 suffix.
Fun Fact
The character '기' (期) also appears in '기간' (period) and '기대' (expectation).
