释义

A tank is a large heavy military vehicle with guns, or a large container used for holding liquid or gas. The form 'tanks' is the plural of 'tank'.

用法与细微差别

Most often, people think of the military meaning first. In everyday non-military contexts, 'tank' often means a storage container, as in 'water tank' or 'gas tank'. Don't confuse it with the informal verb 'tank', which means to fail badly or drop quickly.
