Estação
Station
Language note: Means station (train/metro/bus). For “train station” you can say “estação de comboios.”
Culture note: Big cities often have multiple stations—so naming the station matters (Campanhã vs São Bento; Oriente vs Santa Apolónia).
Context: You want to confirm where the train departs from, so you ask about the station (just the keyword).
