receiver

[C] Đếm được
Số nhiều: receivers

This word carries a strong sense of passive acquisition or technical reception. In a social or legal context, it implies a role of stewardship or the end-point of a transaction, where the focus is on the arrival of an object or a right rather than the act of seeking it. In technical spheres, it suggests a specialized gateway. Whether it is a piece of hardware capturing electromagnetic waves or a sports player capturing a projectile, the term emphasizes the precise moment of interception and the transition of possession from a source to a destination.

Countable when referring to a person or a specific piece of hardware, such as a home theater receiver or a legal official.
