How it's used

This term is formal and typically refers to an official administrative or service entity rather than a general office space. It is commonly used in professional or government contexts to describe a specific branch or bureau handling public affairs. You will rarely hear it in casual conversation, where people prefer using simpler terms like 辦公室 or 寫字樓.

Common mistake

Learners often use this term for any workplace, but it specifically implies an organization with an administrative function. Using it to describe a private company office sounds unnatural and overly bureaucratic.
