Be used in Korean 🇰🇷

사용되다 info.

Tips to Remember:
• Break the word into two parts: “사용” (sayong) means “use” and “되다” (doeda) means “to become” or “to be.” Think of it as “to become used” or “to be used.”
• Remember that “사용되다” is the passive form, so it means “be used” rather than “use.”

Explanation:
• “사용되다” is a passive verb meaning “to be used.” It indicates that something is utilized or employed.
• It is different from “사용하다” (sayonghada), which means “to use” in the active voice.

Synonyms:
• 이용되다 (iyongdoeda) – also means “to be used” or “to be utilized.”
• 적용되다 (jeogyongdoeda) – in contexts where something is applied.
