Synonyms & antonyms
  • Synonym野営やえいNeutralMaking camp overnight in the open field, for troops and civilians alike; unlike 「宿営」, which is lodging for military units only.
  • SynonymキャンプNeutralLoanword for camping, also covering training and refugee camps; the most common word in everyday use, broader than the military 「宿営」.
  • SynonymビバークNeutralClimbing loanword for an emergency bivouac in the mountains; what sets it apart is that the overnight stay is unplanned.
  • Synonym幕営ばくえいWrittenWritten word for pitching tents and staying overnight; the focus is on the tent enclosure, and it is not restricted to military lodging like 「宿営」.
  • Synonym露営ろえいWrittenWritten word for setting up camp in the open, with tents or without; often for troops on the march, and not confined to military stations.
  • Synonym軍営ぐんえいWrittenWritten word for a camp where troops are stationed; it points to the military site itself rather than the lodging that 「宿営」 names.
  • Related営所えいしょWrittenWritten word for the barracks where soldiers live; it names the place itself, not the act of billeting that 「宿営」 describes.
  • Related露宿ろしゅくWrittenWritten word for sleeping out under the open sky overnight; the stress is on having no roof, not on troops billeting as in 「宿営」.
  • Antonym撤営WrittenFormal antonym: breaking camp and pulling out, the opposite of 「宿営」, which is settling troops in to lodge.

Use 「宿営」 for troops lodging at a camp, as in 「宿営地」. For camping out in the open say 「野営」; for everyday camping, 「キャンプ」; for an unplanned bivouac while climbing, 「ビバーク」. 「幕営」「露営」「営所」「軍営」「露宿」 are written words, and 「撤営」, breaking camp, is the antonym.
