The curved path that one object in space follows around another, like the Earth's orbit around the Sun. As a verb, planets, moons, and satellites 'orbit' each other. The word is also used more loosely for being within someone's circle of influence - 'staying in someone's orbit' means staying close to and influenced by them.
軌道(名詞);(動詞)繞行;比喻:「在某人的orbit裡」=受某人影響、圍繞在其身邊
組成From the Latin word 'orbis', meaning a circle or ring.
