Good Understanding of These Words: 緊急きんきゅう, 至急しきゅう and 早急そうきゅう

I’d say 緊急きんきゅう, 至急しきゅう and 早急そうきゅう are one of the confusing words for you. However, don’t worry about it. You would be figuring these out after reading this. Let me introduce how you correctly use 緊急きんきゅう, 至急しきゅう and 早急そうきゅう today!

緊急きんきゅう(kinkyuu)

Emergency

“緊急きんきゅう” means “Emergency” and the difference between “緊急きんきゅう” and “至急きんきゅう and 早急そうきゅうに” is that “緊急きんきゅう“: if someone doesn’t hurry something, he/she might die which means it has been basically used related to their life. For example, Emergency landing(緊急着陸きんきゅうちゃくりく), an emergency call(緊急連絡きんきゅうれんらく), emergency alert(緊急警報きんきゅうけいほう), an emergency vehicle(緊急車両きんきゅうしゃりょう) and emergency situation(緊急事態きんきゅうじたい) to be related to our life. Although “至急きんきゅう and 早急そうきゅうに” is not related to our life, if someone does not do something while being said these words, he/she would be ONLY bad cases.

Example

至急しきゅう / 早急そうきゅうに,な

As soon as possible / Prompt / Urgently

“至急しきゅう and 早急そうきゅうに,な” mean “As soon as possible, Prompt and Urgently” and the difference between these is the way to use 至急しきゅう and 早急そうきゅうに,な. You have put に or な with 早急そうきゅう and when using 早急そうきゅうに, you would use it before a verb, such as 早急そうきゅうに連絡れんらくする, 早急そうきゅうに帰かえる, etc. And when using 早急そうきゅうな, you would use it before a noun, such as 早急そうきゅうな連絡れんらく, 早急そうきゅうな返事へんじ, etc. Whereas the way to use 至急しきゅう is that you won’t be able to say 至急しきゅうな or 至急しきゅうに. That would be only 至急しきゅう、＿＿＿. For instance, “至急しきゅう、連絡れんらくください。(Please urgently contact.)”, “至急しきゅう返信へんしんを下ください。(Please reply urgently.)”, etc.
