A building that has a jail in it — the place itself, the house of the jail. In everyday American English, jail and jailhouse sit very close; jailhouse often stresses the building, and it turns up in songs and set phrases (jailhouse rock; a jailhouse lawyer is a prisoner who learns enough law to advise other prisoners). A jail is often a local lock-up, for people waiting for court or serving a short time; a prison is usually for longer sentences after a trial. Though actually, many speakers mix jail, jailhouse, and prison in casual talk, so the tidy dictionary line is tidier than the street.
看守所、監獄（指那棟房子）
