When you say something or someone is 척박하다 (cheokbakada), you're literally saying they are barren or infertile. Think of a desert landscape – dry, rocky, and unable to support much life. This word is perfect for describing such a place.
However, 척박하다 can also be used figuratively. You might use it to describe a difficult or unproductive environment, like a 'barren land' for new ideas, or a tough period in your life.
So, it’s not just about physical infertility, but also about a general lack of productivity, growth, or richness.
You could say, '그 땅은 너무 척박해서 농사짓기 어려워요' (Geu ttangeun neomu cheokbakhaeseo nongsa-jitgi eoryeowoyo), meaning 'That land is too barren, so it’s hard to farm.'
Or, if you're talking about a challenging situation, you might say, '척박한 환경에서도 우리는 희망을 잃지 않았어요' (Cheokbakhan hwangyeongeseodo urineun huimangeul ilji anhasseoyo), meaning 'Even in a barren/difficult environment, we didn't lose hope.'
When we say something is 척박하다, we mean it's very difficult for things to grow or thrive there. Think of a desert or really poor soil – that's 척박하다.
It can also be used metaphorically to describe a harsh environment where it's hard to make a living or succeed. So, it's not just about land, but about any situation that lacks the necessary resources for growth or development.
For instance, a 척박한 땅 (barren land) won't yield many crops. Likewise, if a job market is 척박하다, it means there are very few opportunities available.
This word really emphasizes a sense of difficulty and lack of potential due to unfavorable conditions.
When something is 척박하다, it means it's unproductive or barren. This word often describes land that is infertile and unable to grow crops or lush vegetation. Think of a desert or very rocky soil; that would be 척박한 땅 (barren land).
Beyond just land, you can also use 척박하다 to describe situations or environments that are harsh, difficult, or lacking in resources. For example, you might say someone grew up in 척박한 환경 (a harsh environment) if they faced many challenges and had few opportunities. It implies a lack of abundance or favorability.
§ What 척박하다 Means
The Korean adjective 척박하다 (cheokbakada) is used to describe something that is barren or infertile. Most often, you'll hear it in the context of land that is unable to produce much vegetation. Think of a desert or very rocky soil where plants struggle to grow. That's 척박하다.
While its primary use is for land, you might also hear it used metaphorically, though less commonly. For example, someone might describe a difficult or unproductive environment, like a workplace lacking opportunities, as 척박하다. However, when you're first learning, focus on its literal meaning related to land and agriculture.
- DEFINITION
- To be barren, to be infertile; unable to produce much vegetation.
§ When Do People Use It?

容易混淆的词
This is the direct opposite of '척박하다.' It means 'to be fertile' or 'to be rich in nutrients,' capable of producing much vegetation.
Similar to '비옥하다,' it also means 'to be fertile' or 'to be rich,' often implying oily or rich soil, good for farming. It's another antonym for '척박하다.'
This means 'to be abundant' or 'to be rich.' While it can refer to fertile land, it's a broader term and can describe abundance in various contexts, like resources or life in general, whereas '척박하다' is more specific to land infertility.
语法模式
容易混淆
Both '척박하다' and '메마르다' can describe land that lacks moisture or fertility. The confusion arises because they often appear in similar contexts.
'척박하다' (cheok-bak-ha-da) generally refers to land that is inherently poor in nutrients and unable to support much life, often due to its soil quality. It emphasizes the *difficulty* of growth. '메마르다' (me-ma-reu-da) more specifically means 'to be dry' or 'to be parched,' and while it can lead to barrenness, its primary focus is on the lack of water. It can also describe things other than land, like emotions or a person's life.
이 땅은 물이 없어서 메말랐어요. (This land is dry because there is no water.)
Both words describe a desolate or empty landscape. '황량하다' often implies a sense of emptiness and bleakness, which can be a result of '척박하다' conditions.
'척박하다' (cheok-bak-ha-da) focuses on the *infertility* or poor quality of the land itself, making it difficult for things to grow. '황량하다' (hwang-nyang-ha-da) describes the *appearance* of being desolate, barren, or bleak, often due to lack of life or vegetation. While a '척박한' land might look '황량한,' the latter emphasizes the visual desolation rather than the inherent quality of the soil.
겨울이 되면 들판이 황량해집니다. (When winter comes, the fields become desolate.)
Both refer to unproductive land. '불모지' literally translates to 'barren land,' which is very close to the meaning of '척박하다.'
'척박하다' (cheok-bak-ha-da) is an adjective describing the *condition* of being barren or infertile. '불모지' (bul-mo-ji) is a noun meaning 'barren land' or 'wasteland.' So, you could describe a '불모지' as '척박하다.' One is a description, the other is a place.
이곳은 불모지라서 아무것도 자라지 않아요. (This place is barren land, so nothing grows.)
'삭막하다' often describes a bleak or dismal atmosphere, which can be found in '척박한' environments. It implies a lack of warmth or life.
'척박하다' (cheok-bak-ha-da) specifically pertains to the physical quality of land making it difficult for things to grow. '삭막하다' (sak-mak-ha-da) describes a feeling or atmosphere of being bleak, dreary, or desolate, often lacking warmth, vitality, or human interaction. It can apply to places, situations, or even emotions, not just land fertility.
도시의 회색 건물들이 삭막한 느낌을 줍니다. (The city's gray buildings give a bleak feeling.)
Barren land is often dry, leading to confusion. '건조하다' means 'to be dry' and lack moisture, which is a characteristic that can contribute to '척박하다' conditions.
'척박하다' (cheok-bak-ha-da) is about the overall lack of fertility and ability to sustain life, which can be due to various factors including dryness. '건조하다' (geon-jo-ha-da) specifically refers to the lack of moisture or being dry. While dry land can be barren, not all barren land is solely barren due to dryness (e.g., rocky soil can be infertile even if it's not extremely dry).
사막은 매우 건조한 기후를 가지고 있습니다. (Deserts have a very dry climate.)

如何使用
척박하다 (cheokbakada) is commonly used to describe land or soil that is unproductive. You might hear it when talking about deserts or places where it's hard to grow crops. It can also be used figuratively to describe a place that is emotionally or spiritually barren, though this is less common for A2 learners.
Example 1: 그 땅은 너무 척박해서 아무것도 자라지 않아요. (Geu ttangeun neomu cheokbakhaeseo amugeotdo jaraji anayo.)
Hint 1: That land is too barren, so nothing grows.
Example 2: 척박한 환경에서도 식물은 살아남습니다. (Cheokbakhan hwan-gyeong-eseodo singmureun saranameumnida.)
Hint 2: Even in barren environments, plants survive.
A common mistake is confusing 척박하다 with words that mean 'dry' or 'empty'. While barren land is often dry, 척박하다 specifically refers to the inability to support vegetation, not just a lack of moisture.
Incorrect usage: 이 방은 척박해요. (I bang-eun cheokbakhaeyo.)
Correction: 이 방은 비어 있어요. (I bang-eun bieo isseoyo.) - This room is empty.
Another mistake is trying to use it for things that aren't land or environments. You wouldn't use it to describe a person or an object.
Incorrect usage: 그 사람은 척박한 마음을 가지고 있어요. (Geu saram-eun cheokbakhan maeum-eul gajigo isseoyo.)
Correction: 그 사람은 마음이 메말랐어요. (Geu saram-eun ma-eum-i memallasseoyo.) - That person has a dry/unfeeling heart.

수십 년간 이어진 가뭄으로 그 땅은 더욱 ___졌다.
The drought made the land barren. '척박하다' means barren or infertile. '풍요롭다' means fertile/rich, '비옥하다' means fertile, and '메마르다' means dry, but '척박하다' fits best with the nuance of unproductive land after a long drought.
이 지역은 기후가 ___ 농업 생산성이 낮다.
Due to the harsh climate, agricultural productivity is low. '척박하다' refers to the land being unproductive, which aligns with low agricultural productivity. '온화하다' means mild, '비옥하다' means fertile, and '습하다' means humid, none of which fit the context of low productivity.
역사적으로 이 나라는 ___ 환경 때문에 식량 부족에 시달려 왔다.
Historically, this country has suffered from food shortages due to its barren environment. '척박하다' describes an environment that makes it difficult to produce food. '풍부하다' means abundant, '온화하다' means mild, and '비옥하다' means fertile, all of which contradict the idea of food shortages.

그 지역의 ___ 토양은 특별한 농법을 요구한다.
