🌈 The Big Picture

• $$\color{purple}{\text{집에서}}$$ [ji-be-seo] = from home

• $$\color{purple}{\text{학교까지}}$$ [hak-kkyo-kka-ji] = to school

• $$\color{purple}{\text{집에서 학교까지}}$$ [ji-be-seo hak-kkyo-kka-ji] = from home to school

🧩 The Core Place Family

• $$\color{purple}{\text{집}}$$ [jip] → $$\color{purple}{\text{집에서}}$$ [ji-be-seo] (from home)

• $$\color{purple}{\text{학교}}$$ [hak-kkyo] → $$\color{purple}{\text{학교까지}}$$ [hak-kkyo-kka-ji] (to school)

• $$\color{purple}{\text{회사}}$$ [hoe-sa] → $$\color{purple}{\text{회사에서}}$$ [hoe-sa-e-seo] (from work/company)

• $$\color{purple}{\text{시장}}$$ [si-jang] → $$\color{purple}{\text{시장까지}}$$ [si-jang-kka-ji] (to the market)

🛠️ How It Works

🚨 Exception Rule

• Time: $$\color{purple}{\text{오늘부터}}$$ [o-neul-bu-teo]

• Place: $$\color{purple}{\text{집에서}}$$ [ji-be-seo]

📚 Cross-check note

🪞 Synonym Alert

• $$\color{purple}{\text{에}}$$ [e] can mark a destination: $$\color{purple}{\text{학교에 가요}}$$.

• $$\color{purple}{\text{까지}}$$ [kka-ji] emphasizes “up to / all the way to.”

⚠️ Pitfalls to Dodge

• ❌ Place start with $$\color{purple}{\text{부터}}$$ → ✅ use $$\color{purple}{\text{에서}}$$.

• ❌ Place endpoint with $$\color{purple}{\text{에서}}$$ → ✅ use $$\color{purple}{\text{까지}}$$.

• ❌ $$\color{purple}{\text{집부터 학교까지}}$$ → ✅ $$\color{purple}{\text{집에서 학교까지}}$$
