barrack

barrack

noun

"Barrack" is a noun that refers to a building used for housing military personnel. This type of building is typically used by soldiers who are stationed at a military base. It can also be used to describe temporary accommodation for other people, such as workers or refugees. An equivalent term in English to describe this type of building without using the word "barrack" would be a "military dormitory" or a "military housing unit."

 

Example

  1. The soldiers were housed in a large barrack on the military base.
  2. The refugees were temporarily housed in a barrack until they could find more permanent accommodation.
  3. The barracks were uncomfortable, but the soldiers were grateful for a roof over their heads.
