post office
This term refers to both a physical location and a bureaucratic entity. When referring to the building, it describes the local branch where customers interact with staff. When referring to the organization, it describes the national postal authority, often used in a more formal or administrative context.
In many English-speaking countries, the term is frequently used as a shorthand for the entire postal system. While it is a compound noun, it functions as a single semantic unit and is typically treated as a countable noun when referring to specific branches.
Meanings

The official organization or government department responsible for the postal service of a country.
Examples
