A portico is a covered entrance stuck on the front of a building: a roof held up by pillars, so you can stand out of the rain before you go in. Old banks, museums, and grand houses often have one. People who talk about buildings use this word; most of us just say porch, or “the columns at the front.” Though actually a porch can be a simple wooden step with a roof, while a portico usually looks grander, with stone pillars. It is a rather formal, specialist word, not everyday talk.
柱廊、有柱門廊
