How to use 网站

网站 is the everyday word for a website, and it is counted with 个 (gè) or 家 (jiā). It often appears with verbs like 打开 (open), 访问 (visit), or 登录 (log in). Example: 这个网站很有用。(Zhège wǎngzhàn hěn yǒuyòng.) This website is very useful.

网 (wǎng) means net, and 站 (zhàn) means station or stop, like in 车站 (chēzhàn). A 网站 is a "station on the net," a place on the Internet where you stop and visit.

Common mistake: Learners sometimes write 战 (zhàn, war) instead of 站, since they sound the same. Remember that 站 has the standing radical 立 on the left, because a station is where you stand and wait.
