Tips to remember:
• Break the word into two parts: 운전 (unjeon) means "driving" and 사 (sa) is a suffix for a person in a profession (like 의사, uisa, for "doctor"). So, 운전사 (unjeonsa) literally means "driving person" or "driver."

Explanations:
• 운전사 (unjeonsa) refers to someone who drives vehicles. It is often used for professional drivers.
• The word combines the action (운전, unjeon) with the person suffix (사, sa), indicating their occupation.

• 운전자 (unjeonja) – A more general term for “driver,” though less commonly used in professional titles.

Alternate meanings and slang:
• There aren’t widely recognized slang meanings for 운전사 beyond its standard occupational use.
• In specific contexts (like military or informal talk), similar terms such as 운전병 (unjeonbyeong) may be used to refer to a driver without the professional title nuance.
