What does “prison camp” mean?
Meaning: A place where prisoners are held, often in war.
How the officer may ask it
“Have you ever worked in a prison or prison camp?”
How to answer
Listen carefully and answer only what is asked. If the officer asks what the word means, explain it in simple words, like: “A place where prisoners are held, often in war.” If something on your N-400 is unclear or you are not sure how to answer, talk to an immigration attorney before the interview — this is not legal advice.
