Context & Register
Depot 作名词时有两个常见义项：运输站点和储存仓库。在运输语境中（如公交车站、火车站）较为常见，在仓储语境中（如仓库、货栈）也常用。整体语体中性，但有时在军事或工业场景中稍显正式。通常建议根据具体义项和场合判断语体色彩。
Pronunciation & Spelling
Words like 'go', 'so', 'no', and 'photo' share the same final /oʊ/ sound as the second syllable of 'depot'. However, note that 'pot' and 'spot' have the same spelling ending but are pronounced with a short /ɑː/ vowel, so they do not sound alike.
Usage priority
Collins 词频等级为 1，建议结合例句记忆，而不是只背中文释义。
