Pro Tip
Contextual Usage
Use this phrase when describing someone's lack of global awareness or experience. It implies a broader ignorance beyond just geography, including cultures, history, or current events.
Gold Rule
Avoid Literal Translation
Do not translate '세계에 무지한 사람' as 'a person who is ignorant to the world'—the correct phrasing is 'a person ignorant of the world' or 'a person with no worldly knowledge'.
Word Origin
The phrase combines '세계' (world) + '에' (to/at) + '무지한' (ignorant) + '사람' (person). '무지하다' comes from '무' (not) + '지' (know), indicating lack of knowledge.
Usage Notes
Commonly used in discussions about education, travel, or cultural awareness. Avoid using in formal academic writing unless quoting someone.
