가계
가계 در ۳۰ ثانیه
- Gagye refers to a household's finances, including income and expenses.
- It can also mean the household itself as an economic unit.
- Commonly used in news, finance, and discussions about personal budgets.
- Think of it as 'household economics' or 'family budget'.
The Korean word 가계 (gagye) is a multifaceted term that primarily refers to two interconnected concepts: the household as an economic unit and the household's finances, specifically its income and expenditure. It's a formal and widely used term in discussions about personal finance, economics, and daily life management. You'll encounter 가계 in news articles about the economy, in government policy discussions, and when people talk about managing their personal budgets.
- Household as an Economic Unit
- This refers to the people who live together and share resources, forming a single domestic entity. It's about the collective living space and the individuals within it who make economic decisions together.
- Household Income and Expenditure
- This is the more common usage, referring to the money coming in (income) and the money going out (expenses) for a household. It's about budgeting, saving, spending, and the overall financial health of a family or individual living situation.
When you hear 가계, think about the financial management of a home. For instance, news reports might discuss the burden of household debt, or a financial advisor might help you plan your 가계 budget. It's a fundamental term for understanding personal and family economics in Korea.
정부는 가계 부채 증가를 억제하기 위한 대책을 발표했습니다. (The government announced measures to curb the increase in household debt.)
새해에는 가계 경제를 튼튼하게 만드는 것이 목표입니다. (My goal for the new year is to strengthen the household economy.)
Using 가계 correctly involves understanding its dual meaning. You can talk about the financial management of a household or the household itself as an economic entity.
- Focusing on Financial Management
- This is the most common application. You'll often see phrases like 가계부 (gagye-bu), which means a household ledger or budget book. Discussions about saving money, increasing income, or reducing expenses all fall under this category. For example, 'I need to manage my 가계 better this month' translates to managing your household finances.
- Referring to the Household as an Economic Unit
- Less frequently, it can refer to the collective economic standing or the decisions made by the people within a household. For instance, 'The 가계 is facing difficult times' implies the economic struggles of the people living together.
Common verbs used with 가계 include 관리하다 (gwanrihada - to manage), 절약하다 (jeoryakhada - to save/economize), 늘리다 (neullida - to increase), and 줄이다 (jurida - to decrease). These verbs help specify the action being taken regarding the household's finances.
이번 달 가계 지출을 줄이기 위해 노력하고 있어요. (I am trying to reduce household expenses this month.)
그는 가계 경제에 대한 관심이 많습니다. (He is very interested in the household economy.)
효율적인 가계 관리는 재정적 안정의 핵심입니다. (Effective household management is key to financial stability.)
The term 가계 (gagye) is prevalent in several aspects of Korean life, primarily concerning personal and national economics. You will hear it most frequently in:
- News and Media
- Economic news segments often discuss 가계 소득 (gagye so-deuk - household income), 가계 지출 (gagye ji-chul - household expenditure), or 가계 부채 (gagye bu-chae - household debt). Reports on inflation, interest rates, and consumer spending will invariably use this term.
- Financial Institutions and Advice
- Banks, investment firms, and financial planners use 가계 when discussing financial planning, budgeting, and investment strategies for individuals and families. They might offer advice on how to improve 가계 경제 (gagye gyeongje - household economy).
- Government and Policy Discussions
- When the government implements policies related to taxation, welfare, or economic stimulus, they often analyze the impact on 가계. Discussions about supporting low-income 가계 or managing national debt often involve this term.
- Everyday Conversations about Personal Finance
- People discussing their personal budgets, how to save for a house, or manage family expenses will use 가계. For example, someone might say, 'My 가계 is really tight this month,' meaning their household finances are strained.
은행 직원이 가계 대출 금리 변동에 대해 설명해 주었습니다. (The bank employee explained the changes in household loan interest rates.)
정치인들은 가계 경제 활성화를 위한 공약을 내세웠습니다. (Politicians presented pledges for revitalizing the household economy.)
While 가계 is a common word, learners might make a few mistakes when using it. These often stem from oversimplifying its meaning or confusing it with similar but distinct terms.
- Confusing 가계 with 'family' or 'home' in a non-economic sense
- 가계 specifically refers to the economic aspect. While a household is made up of family members, using 가계 when you mean 'family gathering' (가족 모임 - gajok mo-im) or simply 'home' (집 - jip) would be incorrect. For example, you wouldn't say 'I'm going home to my 가계' if you just mean your house.
- Using it for individual finances exclusively
- While a single person living alone forms a 가계, the term often implies a collective unit where resources are shared or decisions are made together. If you are talking about your own personal spending without reference to a shared household budget, terms like '내 돈' (nae don - my money) or '개인적인 지출' (gae-in-jeok-in ji-chul - personal expenses) might be more appropriate, though 가계 can still apply to a single-person household's budget.
- Overusing it in casual conversation
- 가계 is a relatively formal term. While it's used in everyday conversations about personal finance, it's not typically used for very casual discussions about money unless it pertains to budgeting or household economics. For instance, you wouldn't say 'I need to manage my 가계' when just talking about buying a coffee.
- Mistaking 가계 for a specific type of debt
- While 가계 부채 (gagye bu-chae) refers to household debt, 가계 itself is not debt. It's the broader concept of the household's economic situation, which can include debt, income, and expenses.
Incorrect: 오늘 가족 모임에 가계를 불렀어요. (Today I invited my household to the family gathering.)
Correct: 오늘 가족 모임에 가족들을 불렀어요. (Today I invited my family members to the family gathering.)
Understanding 가계 is enhanced by comparing it with similar words. While some terms overlap in meaning, they often carry different nuances or levels of formality.
- 가정 (gajeong) - Home, Family, Household
- This is a broader term encompassing the physical home, the family living there, and the domestic environment. It can refer to the family unit in a general sense, not strictly economic. 가정 is used for family well-being, home life, and general domesticity. 가계 is specifically about the economic aspect of this unit.
- 세대 (sedae) - Generation, Household (in statistics)
- In statistical contexts, 세대 can refer to a household as a unit for data collection, similar to 가계 in that sense. However, 세대 also means 'generation.' When referring to economic units in official reports, 가계 is more common for financial discussions, while 세대 might be used more neutrally in demographic data.
- 살림 (sallim) - Household management, Living, Livelihood
- This term refers to the act of managing a household, often focusing on daily necessities, cooking, and general upkeep. 살림을 하다 (sallim-eul hada) means to manage the household. It's more about the practical, day-to-day running of a home than the abstract financial planning that 가계 implies, though there's overlap. You might hear '살림이 어렵다' (sallim-i eoryeopda - livelihood is difficult), which is similar to 가계 being tight.
- 경제 (gyeongje) - Economy
- This is the general term for 'economy.' 가계 is a specific component of the broader economy, referring to the micro-level economic activity of households. You might talk about the 'national economy' (국가 경제 - gukga gyeongje) or the 'household economy' (가계 경제 - gagye gyeongje).
가정은 행복의 기반이지만, 가계는 그 기반을 유지하는 경제적 힘입니다. (A home is the foundation of happiness, but the household economy is the financial power that sustains that foundation.)
통계청은 가계 소득뿐만 아니라 세대별 소득 격차도 발표합니다. (The National Statistical Office publishes not only household income but also generational income gaps.)

نکات
Look for Financial Keywords
When you encounter 가계, scan the surrounding text for words like '소득' (income), '지출' (expenditure), '부채' (debt), '예산' (budget), '저축' (savings), or '소비' (consumption). These keywords will confirm that 가계 is being used in its financial sense.
Connect to 'Household'
Think of 가계 as directly related to 'household' in an economic context. Just as in English we talk about 'household income' or 'household expenses,' 가계 is the Korean term for this economic unit and its financial activities.
Use in Budgeting Sentences
Try creating sentences about managing your own budget, even if hypothetical. For example, '이번 달 가계 지출을 줄일 거예요.' (I will reduce this month's household expenditure.) This active use will solidify your understanding.
Differentiate from 가정
Remember that 가계 is about money and economic units, while 가정 is about family life and home. This distinction is crucial for accurate usage.
Learn Related Terms

Watch Korean News

Understand its Importance

روش یادسپاری
Think of 'gae-gyo' (개교 - school opening). Imagine a school where students are learning about economics, specifically how to manage their 'gae' (개 - individual/family) money. So, 'gae-gyo' becomes 'gae-gye' (가계) for household money management.
تداعی تصویری
Picture a house with a large calculator and a ledger book on its roof. The house represents the '가' (house/family) and the calculator/ledger represents the '계' (plan/account). This visual reinforces the idea of managing household finances.

چالش
Try to explain the concept of '가계' to someone else using your own words, focusing on both the 'household unit' and 'income/expenditure' aspects. Imagine you're a financial advisor explaining it to a new client.
ریشه کلمه
The word 가계 (gagye) is a Sino-Korean word, derived from Chinese characters. It is composed of two characters: '家' (ga) meaning 'house' or 'family,' and '計' (gye) meaning 'plan,' 'calculate,' or 'account.' Therefore, its literal origin points to 'planning for the house' or 'accounting for the family.'
معنای اصلی: The original meaning reflects the idea of managing the household's financial affairs, planning its budget, and keeping accounts.
Sino-Korean (derived from Chinese)بافت فرهنگی
When discussing 가계 issues, especially debt or financial hardship, it's important to be sensitive. While financial discussions are open, direct inquiries into someone's personal 가계 without invitation can be considered intrusive.
While 'household' or 'family budget' are direct translations, the Korean term 가계 often carries a slightly more formal and economically focused connotation than casual English equivalents. It's very common in news and financial discussions.

سوالات متداول
10 سوالNo, 가계 can refer to a single person living alone who manages their own finances as a household unit. However, it is very commonly used when referring to families or groups of people living together and sharing economic resources. The key is the economic unit, not necessarily the number of people.
가계 (家計) specifically refers to the economic aspect of a household – its income, expenses, and financial management. 가정 (家庭) is a broader term that encompasses the home, family life, relationships, and general domestic environment, not strictly limited to finances.
No, 가계 is not used to mean just a physical 'home' or 'house' (which is 집). It's always related to the economic activities or the economic unit of people living together.
Very common phrases include 가계부 (household ledger), 가계 경제 (household economy), 가계 소득 (household income), 가계 지출 (household expenditure), and 가계 부채 (household debt).
가계 is generally considered a neutral to formal term. It is frequently used in news reports, financial discussions, and academic contexts. While it can appear in everyday conversations about personal finance, it's not typically used in very casual, slang-like situations.
가계 is a fundamental component of the national economy. The aggregate income, expenditure, and savings of all households significantly influence national economic growth, inflation, and employment. Government economic policies are often designed with the 가계 economy in mind.
가계부 (gagye-bu) is a household ledger or budget book. It's a tool used for tracking and managing 가계 income and expenditure. Keeping a 가계부 is a common practice for those aiming for better 가계 management.
Not necessarily. A single individual managing their own finances and living expenses can also be considered a 가계 (household unit). The focus is on the economic entity, which can be one or more people.
Common issues discussed in relation to 가계 include high household debt (가계 부채), low household income growth (가계 소득 증가율 둔화), and difficulties in managing household expenditure (가계 지출 관리).
Try writing sentences about your own (or a hypothetical) household budget, income, and expenses. Read Korean news articles on economic topics and identify how 가계 is used. You can also practice by explaining the concept to a language partner.
