영양실조
영양실조 در ۳۰ ثانیه
- 영양실조 refers to the serious medical condition of malnutrition caused by insufficient or unbalanced food intake.
- It is a formal term often used in medical, social, and global news contexts rather than casual conversation.
- The word is commonly paired with verbs like '걸리다' (to catch) and nouns like '상태' (state).
- It carries a heavy cultural and historical weight in Korea, often linked to past poverty or modern health warnings.
The Korean word 영양실조 (Yeongyang-siljo) is a formal and clinical term used to describe the state of malnutrition or nutritional deficiency. Etymologically, it is composed of three distinct concepts: Yeongyang (nutrition), Sil (loss or failure), and Jo (harmony or regulation). Together, it literally translates to a 'failure to regulate or maintain nutritional harmony.' In a modern context, while South Korea has moved far beyond the widespread poverty of the mid-20th century, this word remains highly relevant in medical, social, and even beauty-related discourses.
- Medical Context
- It is used by doctors to diagnose patients who lack essential vitamins, minerals, or caloric intake. It is not just about being 'thin' but about the body's inability to function due to poor intake.
의사는 환자가 심각한 영양실조 상태라고 진단했습니다. (The doctor diagnosed the patient as being in a state of severe malnutrition.)
Historically, '영양실조' evokes memories of the 'Barley Hump' (보릿고개), a period in spring when last year's grain had run out and the new harvest was not yet ready. During this time, many Koreans suffered from malnutrition. Today, however, the word is often used in the context of 'selective malnutrition' among young people who follow extreme diets or elderly individuals living alone who struggle with balanced meal preparation. It is also a frequent term in international news when discussing humanitarian crises in North Korea or developing nations.
- Social Context
- In social commentary, it describes the 'hidden hunger' in wealthy societies where people eat plenty of calories but few nutrients.
패스트푸드만 먹으면 영양실조에 걸릴 위험이 있습니다. (If you only eat fast food, there is a risk of suffering from malnutrition.)
Furthermore, the term is used metaphorically in literature or academic writing to describe a 'lack of substance' in ideas or culture. For instance, one might speak of 'intellectual malnutrition' (지적 영양실조) to describe a lack of diverse reading or critical thinking. However, its primary use remains firmly rooted in the physical health domain. Understanding this word requires recognizing the gravity it carries; it suggests a systemic failure of health rather than a temporary state of appetite.
- Grammatical Usage
- It is most commonly paired with the verb '걸리다' (to catch/fall into) or the descriptive noun '상태' (state/condition).
그의 창백한 얼굴은 영양실조를 짐작게 했다. (His pale face allowed one to guess his malnutrition.)
영양실조 아동들을 돕기 위해 기부합시다. (Let's donate to help malnourished children.)
Using 영양실조 correctly involves understanding its role as a clinical noun. Because it describes a condition, it often interacts with verbs that denote suffering, experiencing, or diagnosing. The most essential pattern to master is [Noun] + 에 걸리다, which means 'to contract' or 'to suffer from' a condition. This is used not just for malnutrition but for many illnesses in Korean. For example, saying '영양실조에 걸리다' is the standard way to say 'to become malnourished.'
- Common Verb Pairings
- 1. 영양실조에 걸리다 (To suffer from malnutrition)
2. 영양실조를 겪다 (To experience malnutrition)
3. 영양실조를 치료하다 (To treat malnutrition)
무리한 다이어트는 영양실조를 초래할 수 있습니다. (Excessive dieting can lead to malnutrition.)
In more formal or written Korean, such as in news reports or medical journals, you will often see it followed by '증세' (symptoms) or '상태' (state). For instance, '영양실조 증세' refers to the physical signs of malnutrition. If you are describing a person, you might say '영양실조 상태이다' (is in a state of malnutrition). This adds a layer of objective observation to the sentence, which is appropriate for the weight of the topic.
전쟁 지역의 많은 사람들이 영양실조로 고통받고 있습니다. (Many people in war zones are suffering due to malnutrition.)
Another important usage is in the context of 'prevention.' The word '예방' (prevention) is frequently used with '영양실조.' You might see public health posters saying '영양실조 예방을 위한 식단' (A diet for the prevention of malnutrition). This highlights the proactive side of nutrition. In Korean culture, where food is often equated with health and love, using this word emphasizes a serious lack of care or resources.
- Sentence Starters
- - 영양실조 때문에... (Because of malnutrition...)
- 영양실조가 심해지면... (If malnutrition worsens...)
- 영양실조의 원인은... (The cause of malnutrition is...)
그는 영양실조 때문에 몸이 아주 왜소합니다. (He is very small in stature because of malnutrition.)
Finally, consider the nuance of '영양실조' versus '영양부족.' While '영양부족' (nutritional deficiency) can be a temporary state, '영양실조' usually implies a more chronic or severe condition that has affected the body's overall balance. Using '영양실조' indicates a more critical level of concern. When writing about global issues or medical cases, this is the preferred term to convey the seriousness of the situation.
지속적인 편식은 결국 영양실조를 부릅니다. (Continuous picky eating eventually invites malnutrition.)
In daily life in Korea, you are unlikely to hear 영양실조 in a casual coffee shop conversation unless the topic is specifically about health or social issues. Instead, this word is a staple of 'media and professional' environments. If you watch the nightly news, especially segments on international aid or domestic welfare, the word appears frequently. It is often used to describe the plight of vulnerable populations, such as the elderly living in poverty or children in neglected environments.
- News & Documentaries
- Journalists use it to highlight humanitarian crises. You will hear phrases like '영양실조 위기' (malnutrition crisis) or '영양실조 아동' (malnourished children).
뉴스에서 아프리카의 영양실조 실태를 보도했습니다. (The news reported on the actual state of malnutrition in Africa.)
Another common place to encounter this word is in hospitals and pharmacies. When a patient presents with symptoms like extreme fatigue, hair loss, or brittle nails, a healthcare provider might discuss '영양실조' as a potential cause. It appears on medical charts and in health educational brochures. For example, a brochure might list '영양실조의 징후' (signs of malnutrition) to educate the public on when to seek medical help.
학교 급식은 학생들의 영양실조를 방지하는 역할을 합니다. (School lunches play a role in preventing malnutrition in students.)
In the world of K-beauty and fitness, the word is used as a warning. Many Korean influencers and health experts discuss the dangers of '원푸드 다이어트' (one-food diets) or extreme caloric restriction, warning that these habits lead to '영양실조.' Here, it serves as a cautionary tale against prioritizing aesthetics over health. You might see it in the comments section of a YouTube video where viewers express concern for a creator who looks too thin.
- Literature & History
- In historical novels or films set during the Korean War, this word is central to depicting the hardship of the era.
소설 속 주인공은 오랜 피난 생활로 영양실조에 걸려 있었습니다. (The protagonist in the novel was suffering from malnutrition due to a long life as a refugee.)
Lastly, you might hear it in the context of animal welfare. Shelters often report on rescued animals that are in a state of '영양실조.' This usage mirrors the human context, emphasizing a lack of proper care and nourishment. Whether it's a TV documentary about polar bears struggling with climate change or a local report on an abandoned dog, '영양실조' is the go-to term for describing the physical toll of starvation and poor diet.
One of the most frequent mistakes learners make with 영양실조 is using it too lightly. In English, someone might say 'I'm starving!' or 'I'm malnourished' as a joke when they are just very hungry. In Korean, '영양실조' is almost exclusively a medical or social term. Using it to mean 'I want a snack' would sound very strange and overly dramatic. Instead, use '배고파 죽겠어요' (I'm dying of hunger) for hyperbolic daily hunger.
- Mistake: Over-dramatization
- Don't say: 점심 안 먹어서 영양실조 걸릴 것 같아요. (I think I'll get malnutrition because I didn't eat lunch.)
Say: 점심 안 먹어서 배가 너무 고파요. (I'm so hungry because I didn't eat lunch.)
Correct: 그는 경제적 어려움으로 영양실조 진단을 받았다. (He was diagnosed with malnutrition due to economic difficulties.)
Another common error is confusing '영양실조' with '빈혈' (anemia). While anemia can be a result of malnutrition, they are different conditions. Learners often use '영양실조' when they mean they feel dizzy from not eating. In Korean, if you feel dizzy, you usually refer to '빈혈' or simply say '어지러워요' (I'm dizzy). '영양실조' is a broader, more systemic failure of the body's nutritional balance.
Grammatically, learners sometimes forget to use the correct particles. Since '영양실조' is a state you 'fall into' or 'catch,' the particle '에' is crucial when used with '걸리다.' Saying '영양실조를 걸리다' is a common grammatical error. Remember: [Condition] + 에 걸리다. Similarly, when describing the cause of something else, use '영양실조로' (due to malnutrition) rather than just the noun alone.
- Particle Errors
- Incorrect: 영양실조를 걸렸어요. (X)
Correct: 영양실조에 걸렸어요. (O)
Correct: 영양실조로 인해 면역력이 떨어졌습니다. (Immunity has dropped due to malnutrition.)
Finally, be careful not to confuse '영양실조' with '거식증' (anorexia). While anorexia often leads to malnutrition, '영양실조' is the physical state of the body, whereas '거식증' is the eating disorder itself. Using the terms interchangeably can be medically inaccurate and socially insensitive. Ensure you are describing the physiological result (malnutrition) rather than the psychological cause unless that is your specific intent.
To broaden your vocabulary, it's helpful to look at words that are related to 영양실조. The most direct synonym is 영양부족 (Yeongyang-bujok). While '실조' implies a loss of regulation or a more severe clinical state, '부족' simply means 'insufficiency' or 'lack.' You might use '영양부족' to describe a child who isn't eating enough vegetables, whereas '영양실조' would be used for a child who is physically wasting away.
- 영양실조 vs. 영양부족
- 영양실조: Severe, clinical, systemic failure (Malnutrition).
영양부족: General lack of nutrients, can be mild (Nutritional deficiency).
비타민 영양부족으로 구내염이 생겼다. (I got a mouth ulcer due to a lack of vitamin nutrition.)
Another related term is 기아 (Gia), which means 'famine' or 'starvation.' This is more often used in a macro-societal context, such as '세계 기아 문제' (the global famine problem). While '영양실조' is the medical condition an individual has, '기아' is the social condition of widespread hunger. If you are talking about politics or global economics, '기아' is a very powerful and common word.
전 세계의 기아 인구가 늘어나고 있습니다. (The global starving population is increasing.)
For a more descriptive, less clinical way to say someone is malnourished, you might use the phrase 뼈만 남다 (Ppyeo-man namda), which literally means 'only bones remain.' This is an idiomatic way to describe someone who is extremely thin due to lack of food. It's more visual and emotional than the clinical '영양실조.' Another alternative is 수척하다 (Sucheok-hada), which means to be haggard or emaciated.
- Descriptive Alternatives
- 뼈만 남다: Very thin/skeletal (Idiom).
수척하다: Haggard/gaunt (Adjective).
허기지다: To feel famished (Verb).
그는 병을 앓고 나서 아주 수척해진 모습이었다. (He looked very gaunt after suffering from the illness.)
Lastly, in the context of 'over-nutrition' or 'imbalanced nutrition' (which is technically a form of malnutrition), you might hear 영양 불균형 (Yeongyang bul-gyun-hyeong). This is very common in modern health discussions where people eat enough calories but the ratio of carbs, fats, and proteins is wrong. This is often a more 'polite' or 'modern' way to address nutritional issues in developed societies.

چالش
Try to find a news article in Korean about '영양실조' and count how many times the word appears. Then, write a sentence explaining why a fictional character in a book has this condition.
ریشه کلمه
The word is a Sino-Korean compound. It consists of the Hanja characters 營 (yeong), 養 (yang), 失 (sil), and 調 (jo).
معنای اصلی: The original meaning combines 'to nourish/manage' (營養) with 'loss of regulation' (失調).

Be careful when using this word to describe individuals; it can be seen as a sensitive or stigmatizing topic as it implies poverty or neglect.
In English, 'malnutrition' sounds very academic. In Korean, '영양실조' is also formal but is the only standard way to describe the condition medically.

سوالات متداول
10 سوالNo, it can also mean eating enough calories but missing essential nutrients, or the body being unable to absorb nutrients properly. In modern contexts, it is often used for 'nutritional imbalance.' For example, someone who only eats junk food might be diagnosed with malnutrition even if they are overweight.
While some people do say it jokingly (e.g., 'I haven't had chicken in a week, I'm malnourished!'), it's generally better to avoid it because it's a serious medical term. Using '배고파 죽겠다' (I'm dying of hunger) is a much more common way to express extreme hunger casually.
The most common verb is '걸리다' (to catch/contract). You say '영양실조에 걸리다.' Other verbs include '겪다' (experience) and '치료하다' (treat). Using '하다' (to do) is incorrect in this context.
Yes, the term is used for animals as well. Shelters and veterinarians use it to describe rescued animals that haven't been fed properly. For example, '유기견이 영양실조 상태였다' (The abandoned dog was in a state of malnutrition).
You can say '영양실조 환자' (malnutrition patient) or '영양실조에 걸린 사람' (a person who has malnutrition). In humanitarian contexts, '영양실조 아동' (malnourished child) is very common.
Generally no, but it is still discussed regarding the elderly living alone or young people with eating disorders. Historically, it was a major problem until the late 20th century, so it remains a significant word in the culture.
The Hanja are 營養失調. 營養 (Yeongyang) means nutrition, 失 (Sil) means loss/failure, and 調 (Jo) means harmony/regulation. It literally means 'nutritional harmony is lost.'
Yes, '영양부족' (nutritional deficiency) is a more general and often milder term. '영양실조' is a more formal, clinical diagnosis that implies a more serious health crisis.
It is frequently used in news reports and by NGOs to describe food shortages and health crises in North Korea. It is a key term in humanitarian discourse between the two Koreas.
Usually, for plants, we use '영양 결핍' (nutritional deficiency) or simply say the soil lacks nutrients. '영양실조' is almost exclusively used for humans and animals.

Summary
The word '영양실조' (malnutrition) is a clinical noun used to describe severe nutritional deficiency. Example: '그는 영양실조로 매우 약해졌다' (He became very weak due to malnutrition). Remember to use it for serious health contexts only.
- 영양실조 refers to the serious medical condition of malnutrition caused by insufficient or unbalanced food intake.
- It is a formal term often used in medical, social, and global news contexts rather than casual conversation.
- The word is commonly paired with verbs like '걸리다' (to catch) and nouns like '상태' (state).
- It carries a heavy cultural and historical weight in Korea, often linked to past poverty or modern health warnings.
Use '에' not '를'
Remember to use the particle '에' with the verb '걸리다'. '영양실조에 걸리다' is correct. '영양실조를 걸리다' is a common mistake for beginners.
Learn the Hanja
Knowing that '실' means 'loss' and '조' means 'balance' will help you understand other words like '불면증' or '실조' in different medical contexts.
Respect the history
Be mindful that older Koreans may have lived through times of actual malnutrition. Using the word lightly around them might be seen as insensitive.
Focus on the 'ng'
The double 'ng' sound in 'Yeongyang' can be tricky. Make sure to fully close the first syllable before starting the second 'yang'.
