Meaning and Usage
"轨道" primarily refers to the physical tracks used by trains or other rail vehicles. It can also mean an orbit or path, such as a satellite's orbit around a planet. Additionally, it is used metaphorically to describe a regular or expected course of events, like a person's life or a project returning to a normal 'track.'
Common Collocations
- 轨道交通 (rail transit): refers to urban rail systems like subways.
- 轨道卫星 (orbital satellite): satellites that orbit the earth.
- 轨道修复 (track repair): maintenance of railway tracks.
Usage Notes
When used literally, "轨道" is often paired with verbs like "行驶" (to run) or "修理" (to repair). In metaphorical use, it often appears with verbs like "回到" (return to) or "进入" (enter), indicating a return to normalcy or a set course. Avoid confusing "轨道" with "道路" (road), which refers to roads for vehicles and pedestrians rather than rails or orbits.
