喜樂美語
  1. 1n/ˈbʊkstɔːr/ · /ˈbʊkstɔː/書店

    A shop that sells books.

    「bookstore」是美式英語裡「賣書的店」，中文就是「書店」。核心畫面可以想成「付錢買書帶走的地方」——跟 library（圖書館）分開：library 多半是借書、看書，bookstore 是買書。英式英語常說 bookshop，意思幾乎一樣；台灣教材兩種都會看到。常見說法：go to the bookstore、a local bookstore、available at bookstores。

From the word’s history

A compound of book + store.

由 book（書）加 store（店）組成。

Wiktionary

A shop whose stock is books. The name says the whole thing: book + store.

可以想成：賣的東西就是書的那種店。這個字是 book 加 store 拼起來的，字面已經把意思講完了。要注意它是美式說法，英式英文說 bookshop；另外它跟 library（圖書館）完全不同——bookstore 是買書的地方，library 是借書的地方，這是中文母語者很容易對調的一組字。
