Gates Meaning in English

word · lemma: gate

/ˈɡeɪts/
gayts
/ɡˈeɪts/
gayts

释义

A gate is a movable barrier at the entrance to a place such as a yard, school, or park. In travel, a gate is also the area at an airport where passengers wait to board a plane.

用法与细微差别

For physical entrances, English often uses 'open the gate', 'close the gate', or 'go through the gate'. At airports, we say 'boarding gate' or simply 'gate 12'. Don't confuse 'gate' with a regular indoor 'door'.
