解説 치르다 in your Level:

At the A1 level, you should focus on the most basic meaning of '치르다': paying for something. While beginners usually learn '내다' (to give/pay) or '돈을 주다' (to give money), '치르다' appears when talking about paying the '값' (price) of an item. It is also introduced in the context of taking a very simple '시험' (exam). At this level, don't worry about the complex metaphorical meanings. Just remember that it is a slightly more formal way to say you are finishing a payment or taking a test. You will mostly see it in the past tense '치렀어요' because it describes something you finished doing. Focus on the sentence '값을 치러요' (I pay the price).

At the A2 level, you begin to see '치르다' used for family events and rituals. This is where the word becomes really useful in a Korean cultural context. You might learn about '결혼식' (wedding ceremony) or '장례식' (funeral). When you talk about 'holding' these events from start to finish, '치르다' is the natural verb. It implies that the event was a big task that you successfully completed. You will also learn the irregular conjugation: '치르다' becomes '치러요'. This is a key grammar point at this level. You should be able to say things like '어제 큰 시험을 치렀어요' (I took a big exam yesterday) and understand that it means more than just 'looking' at a paper.

By B1, you should be comfortable with the metaphorical use of '치르다'. The most common phrase is '대가를 치르다' (to pay the price). This doesn't mean paying money; it means facing the consequences of an action. For example, if you don't study and fail, you are 'paying the price' for your laziness. You will also see this word in news reports about elections (선거를 치르다) or international competitions. At this level, you should distinguish between '치르다' and '지불하다'. Use '치르다' when the situation involves a process or a social responsibility, and '지불하다' for simple commercial transactions like buying a coffee.

At the B2 level, you will encounter '치르다' in more formal and literary contexts. It is often used in the passive-like form '치러지다' (to be held/conducted). For example, '경기가 공정하게 치러졌다' (The match was conducted fairly). You will also notice it in discussions about history and social changes, where a nation 'pays a price' for its progress or 'undergoes' a period of turmoil. Your understanding should include the nuance of 'fulfillment.' When an event is '치르다'-ed, it means all the necessary steps and protocols were followed. You should also be able to identify and correct the common misspelling '치루다' in your own writing and others'.

At the C1 level, you should appreciate the subtle stylistic choices involving '치르다'. Writers use it to add a sense of gravity or inevitability to a narrative. For instance, in a novel, a character might '치르다' a long night of soul-searching or a difficult confrontation. It suggests an ordeal that must be endured to reach the next stage. You should also be familiar with academic and legal terminology where '치르다' is used for reparations and legal penalties (형벌을 치르다). At this stage, you should be able to use the word in complex sentence structures, such as using it with 'ㄴ/은 채' or 'ㅁ으로써' to describe the manner or means of completing an event.

At the C2 level, you have a masterly grasp of '치르다' in all its nuances, including its archaic and highly literary uses. You can discuss the etymological roots and how the word reflects the Confucian values of proper ritual (예) and social settlement. You might encounter it in philosophical texts discussing the 'price of existence' or the 'ordeals of the soul.' Your usage is indistinguishable from a highly educated native speaker, correctly applying it to national crises, complex legal settlements, and high-level diplomatic events. You understand that '치르다' is not just a verb but a reflection of the Korean worldview regarding the cyclical nature of obligations and their necessary resolutions.

練習する例文メモとヒント

치르다 30秒で

Used for major life events like weddings, funerals, and national exams.
Means 'to pay' in a formal or consequential sense (e.g., paying for a crime).
An 'ㅡ' irregular verb: conjugates to '치러' (never '치뤄').
Implies the completion and fulfillment of a formal process or obligation.

The Korean verb 치르다 (chireuda) is a multifaceted term that primarily describes the act of undergoing, conducting, or finalizing a significant event or transaction. At its core, it suggests a sense of completion or fulfillment of a requirement, whether that requirement is financial, academic, or ceremonial. Unlike generic verbs for 'doing' or 'making,' 치르다 carries a weight of formality and significance. It is most commonly associated with major life milestones or formal obligations that require preparation and result in a definitive conclusion.

The Transactional Aspect: In its most literal sense, it means to pay a price or settle a bill. However, it is rarely used for buying a simple snack; instead, it refers to settling significant costs or 'paying the price' for one's actions.
The Ceremonial Aspect: It is the standard verb for holding major rites of passage, such as weddings (혼례) or funerals (장례). Using this word implies that the event was conducted with all necessary formalities and has reached its conclusion.
The Academic Aspect: When taking a major examination, like the Suneung (CSAT) or a professional certification, Koreans '치르다' the exam. It emphasizes the ordeal and the formal process of the testing period.

우리는 무사히 장례를 치렀습니다.

Translation: We safely conducted (finished) the funeral.

Culturally, this word reflects the Korean emphasis on 'Gwan-hon-sang-je' (the four ceremonial occasions: coming-of-age, wedding, funeral, and ancestral rites). To '치르다' these events correctly is seen as a vital social duty. Furthermore, the word extends into the metaphorical realm where one 'pays the price' (대가를 치르다) for a mistake or a crime, highlighting the inevitable consequence of actions. It is a word that bridges the gap between the tangible exchange of money and the intangible passage of life events.

큰 시험을 치르느라 고생 많았어.

In modern daily life, you will see this word in news headlines regarding national elections (선거를 치르다) or in legal contexts regarding reparations. It carries an aura of responsibility. When someone says they have '치렀다' something, they are signaling that a significant chapter has been closed through the proper channels.

Using 치르다 correctly requires an understanding of its unique conjugation and its specific object pairings. As an 'ㅡ' irregular verb, the stem changes when it meets an ending that starts with '어' or '아'. The 'ㅡ' is dropped, and since the preceding vowel is 'ㅣ' (neutral), it combines with '어' to become '치러'. A very common mistake even among native speakers is writing '치뤄', which is grammatically incorrect. Always remember: 치르다 + 어요 = 치러요.

Conjugation Patterns: Present: 치러요 (chireoyo)
Past: 치렀어요 (chireosseoyo)
Future: 치를 거예요 (chireul geoyeyo)
Honorific: 치르셨어요 (chireusyeosseoyo)

어제 드디어 기말고사를 치렀습니다.

The verb is transitive, meaning it always takes an object marked by 을/를. The most frequent objects are:

시험 (Exam): Emphasizing the act of taking a formal test.
잔치/행사 (Party/Event): Emphasizing the hosting and completion of a gathering.
값/대가 (Price/Cost): Emphasizing payment or consequences.
장례/결혼 (Funeral/Wedding): Emphasizing the ritual completion.

죄를 지었으면 마땅히 대가를 치러야 한다.

Translation: If you committed a crime, you must naturally pay the price.

In formal writing, such as news reports or academic essays, 치르다 is used to describe national events. For example, '대한민국은 1988년에 올림픽을 치렀다' (South Korea hosted/conducted the Olympics in 1988). Here, it implies not just 'having' the event, but successfully managing and completing the massive undertaking of the games.

물건 값을 다 치르고 가게를 나왔다.

You will encounter 치르다 in several distinct environments, ranging from high-stakes legal dramas to everyday school conversations. Because it deals with 'paying prices' and 'taking exams,' it is a staple of Korean media and social life.

In Schools and Academies (Hagwons): Teachers will often say, "시험을 치르는 동안은 정숙해 주세요" (Please remain quiet while taking the exam). It sounds more authoritative than just saying '시험 보는 동안'.
In News and Media: Broadcasters use it for national elections: "전국에서 일제히 투표를 치르고 있습니다" (Voting is being conducted simultaneously across the country). It is also used in sports when a team 'plays' a match that has significant stakes.
In Legal and Crime Dramas: The phrase "죗값을 치르다" (to pay for one's sins/crimes) is a classic line delivered by protagonists to villains. It emphasizes that justice will be served through a metaphorical payment of suffering or imprisonment.

그는 자신의 잘못에 대해 혹독한 대가를 치렀다.

Translation: He paid a harsh price for his mistake.

In family settings, you will hear it when discussing logistics for major events. If a relative passes away, family members will discuss '장례를 어떻게 치를지' (how to conduct the funeral). Similarly, after a wedding, parents might say '큰 일을 잘 치렀다' (we successfully handled a big event), expressing relief that the complex social obligation is over.

이번 선거는 아주 공정하게 치러질 것입니다.

The verb 치르다 is notorious for being misspelled and misused, even by native speakers. Understanding these pitfalls will make your Korean sound much more polished and accurate.

Mistake 1: The '치루다' Error: This is the most frequent mistake. People mistakenly think the root is '치루다'. Consequently, they conjugate it as '치뤄요' or '치뤘다'. This is wrong. The root is '치르다', and the past tense is '치렀다'.
Mistake 2: Confusing with '지르다': '지르다' (jireuda) means to shout or to set something on fire. Because they sound similar, beginners sometimes swap them. You don't 'shout' an exam (시험을 지르다), you 'undergo' it (시험을 치르다).
Mistake 3: Overuse for Small Tasks: Don't use it for trivial things. You wouldn't '치르다' a 5-minute homework assignment or '치르다' the price of a single piece of gum. It implies a scale of importance or a formal settlement.

❌ 시험을 치뤘다 (Incorrect)
✅ 시험을 치렀다 (Correct)

Another nuance is the difference between '치르다' and '지불하다'. While both can mean 'to pay,' '지불하다' is strictly about the transfer of money (often electronic or commercial). '치르다' is broader, encompassing the social and emotional aspect of finishing a transaction or an ordeal. You can '지불하다' a bill at a restaurant, but you '치르다' the cost of your father's hospital stay, implying the weight of the situation.

그는 용기를 내어 어려운 시험을 치러 냈다.

Understanding the synonyms of 치르다 helps you choose the right level of formality and the specific nuance you want to convey. Depending on whether you are talking about exams, money, or events, different words might be more appropriate.

치르다 vs. 보다 (For Exams): '보다' (to see/watch) is the most common way to say 'take a test'. It is casual and used for everything from pop quizzes to midterms. '치르다' is formal and emphasizes the process and completion of a significant exam.
치르다 vs. 지불하다 (For Money): '지불하다' is a technical, commercial term for paying. '치르다' often refers to the final settlement or the act of paying for something major, like a house or an expensive service.
치르다 vs. 겪다 (For Hardships): '겪다' means to experience or go through something (usually negative). '치르다' can be used similarly when 'paying a price' (대가를 치르다), but '겪다' is more about the internal experience, while '치르다' is about the external requirement or consequence.

치르다: Formal, completion-focused.
보다: Casual, activity-focused.
지불하다: Technical, money-focused.

For ceremonial contexts, you might also see '거행하다' (to hold/conduct a ceremony). While '거행하다' is extremely formal and usually used for state-level events, '치르다' is the versatile choice for both personal family events and public ones. If you want to say someone 'went through' an ordeal, '거치다' (to pass through) is another alternative, but it lacks the 'payment' nuance that '치르다' carries.

잔치를 성대하게 치렀습니다.
