    Example Word

    軌道: track or orbit. The Japanese noun '軌道 (きどう)' has two primary meanings. The first is 'orbit', referring to the path an object takes around a celestial body, such as a planet or star. For example: The satellite entered Earth's orbit「衛星は地球の軌道に入った」(えいせいはちきゅうのきどうにはいった). The second meaning is 'track', referring to the physical rails on which trains or trams run. For example: The train derailed from the track「電車が軌道から外れた」(でんしゃがきどうからはずれた). These meanings are distinct and unrelated, hence both are included. The word is commonly used in both scientific and transportation contexts.
