place where security checks people

A place where police, soldiers, or security staff stop people or cars to check them.

รูปแบบการใช้: at a checkpoint
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes confuse "checkpoint" with "checkup". A "checkpoint" is a place where people are checked, often by police or security, while a "checkup" is a medical exam. Also, "checkpoint" is usually a physical place, not the action of checking.
คำพ้องความหมาย
security post (Focuses on the guarded position itself, not the act of checking.) | roadblock (Implies blocking or stopping traffic more completely, often more forcefully.) | inspection point (More formal/technical; emphasizes the act of examining documents or goods.)
คำตรงข้าม
open road (Implies free movement of traffic without any place where vehicles are stopped and checked.)
คำที่ใช้ร่วมกัน

marked point on a race route

A marked place on a race or long walk where you must pass and sometimes show that you are on the right route or get help.

รูปแบบการใช้: reach a checkpoint
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may think "checkpoint" always involves police or security. In sports and outdoor activities, a checkpoint is usually just a place to record progress or help participants, not to search them.
คำพ้องความหมาย
control point (Common in racing and orienteering; emphasizes official monitoring of progress.) | aid station (Focuses on the place where runners receive water or medical help, not always on time recording.)
คำที่ใช้ร่วมกัน
race checkpoint |aid checkpoint |reach a checkpoint |pass the next checkpoint |staffed checkpoint |mandatory checkpoint
หัวข้อ
sports |travel |outdoors
ตัวอย่าง

saved state of system or game

A saved copy of how a computer program or game looks at one moment, so you can start again from that point later.

รูปแบบการใช้: save a checkpoint
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes think "checkpoint" here means a physical place in the game, but in computing it often means the saved data itself. In many video games, the word is used for both the location in the game world and the saved state connected to it.
คำพ้องความหมาย
save point (Common in video games; more informal and game-focused.) | snapshot (Technical term; emphasizes capturing the entire state at a moment in time.)
คำตรงข้าม
unsaved state (Refers to the current condition that has not been stored and cannot be returned to if lost.)
คำที่ใช้ร่วมกัน
save a checkpoint |restore from a checkpoint |automatic checkpoint |game checkpoint |system checkpoint |checkpoint file
หัวข้อ
technology |gaming |computing
ตัวอย่าง

planned review stage in a project

A planned time in a project when people stop and check how the work is going before they continue.

รูปแบบการใช้: set a checkpoint
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may use "checkpoint" and "deadline" as if they mean the same thing. A "deadline" is the final time when something must be finished. A "checkpoint" is a time to review progress; work often continues after it.
คำพ้องความหมาย
milestone (Focuses more on a key achievement or stage reached, not always on formal review.) | review point (Informal; directly emphasizes checking progress.)
คำที่ใช้ร่วมกัน
project checkpoint |regular checkpoint |schedule a checkpoint |midpoint checkpoint |checkpoint meeting |checkpoint review
หัวข้อ
business |work |management
ตัวอย่าง
  • We have a major checkpoint next month to decide whether to continue funding the project.
  • The manager scheduled weekly checkpoints to keep the team on track.
  • At this checkpoint, we'll review the results and adjust our plan if necessary.

ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may not realize that "checkpoint" as a verb is technical and mainly used in computing contexts. In everyday English, people usually just say "save" instead of "checkpoint".
คำพ้องความหมาย
save (More general and common; does not specifically suggest creating a restorable system snapshot.) | snapshot (Often used as a verb in technical talk; similar idea of capturing current state.)
คำที่ใช้ร่วมกัน
checkpoint the system |checkpoint a job |automatically checkpoint |periodically checkpoint |checkpoint data |checkpoint the simulation
