것 (or just 거 in conversation) is a very widely used word.
1) "thing", "stuff".
- (in a store) 저기 큰 걸로[것으로] 주세요. Give me that big one over there.
- 저기 있는 게[것이] 우리 학교다. That over there is my school.
- 내 것(mine), 네 것(yours), 그 남자 것/그의 것(his), 그 여자 것/그녀의 것(hers), ..
(= 내 거, 네 거, 그 남자 거, 그의 거, 그 여자 거, 그녀의 거,..)
* 것 normally is not used for people (저기 있는 게 우리 형이다 - BAD USAGE)
2) a suffix to make "this thing", "that thing", etc.
- 이것 (this), 저것(that), 그것(it). 아무것(anything) (= 이거, 저거, 그거, 아무거)
3) 것 is a common way to make a noun from a verb.
- 살다 (verb: to live) => 사는 것 (living). 사는 것이[게] 힘들다: Living is hard.
- 먹다 (to eat) => 먹는 것 (eating; food). 먹는 것은[건] 즐거움이다: Eating is a pleasure.
- 알다 (to know) => 아는 것 (knowing; knowledge). 아는 것이[게] 힘이다: Knowledge is power.
4) 것 is the most common way to make a noun phrase or clause from a sentence.
- 나는 작년에 학교를 졸업했다: I graduated from school last year.
=> 내가 학교를 졸업한 것은 작년이었다: It was last year that I graduated from school.
- 사람은 실수를 하게 된다: Everyone will make a mistake.
=> 실수하는 것은 피할 수 없다: Making a mistake is unavoidable.
