경찰서
gyeongchalseo · TOPIK 1
police station
👮🏢 警察署 = warn + inspect + office: gyeong-chal (police) + seo (station)
경찰 (警察) means police: 警 warn/guard + 察 inspect. 서 (署) is a government office, the same ending as in 소방서, fire station. So 경찰서 is literally the police office. Cognate with Japanese keisatsusho and Chinese jǐngcháshǔ.
