英语词汇“station”的英英意思、用法、释义、翻译、读音、例句、短语、词组-英语词典

A station is a regular stopping place, like a bus station, a train station, or even a radio station.

To understand all the jobs the word station has, check out its past — station comes from the Latin stationem for "a job or position," via the word stare which means "to stand.” A station can be where trains “stand,” or a police station where police do their job. Your station in life is your social place. It’s also a verb — like when the military stations troops to protect a border.
