"정육점이 여기 근처에 있습니다."

Translation: The butcher's shop is near here.

[CF00l]

精肉店이 여기 近處에 있습니다.

[Retroagv]

it's often called a butcher's

[Hoochy2]

'The butcher is near here' isn't accepted, but in english it would be ok to leave out 'shop' because that is generally what you would be inferring, ie 'butcher' for 'butcher's shop'

[oee16]

"Butcher's" is accepted (not just "butcher".)

Butcher's > the shop

Butcher > the person

[YunisR]

I think they want to specify that they're talking about the shop not the butcher himself.

[LYOYDr]

I agree, "shop" is redundant because if it isn't a shop it is an abattoir.

[ThomasWelc4]

"The butcher's shop is nearby." connotes the exact same meaning as the Durolingo nearby.

[Akina818861]

why not 이 근처에?

[oee16]

From what I understand, "이" can be used to indicate (this)person or (this)object. It is found mainly in literary works. But this practice is considered 'archaic' or 'dialectical' and not used in contemporary speech.

Its equivalent to indicate a "place" is 예(이에).
