organization

Compared meaning: a body of people that manages something (noun).

比较义项：由人组成的机构或管理团体（名词）。

• organization 本词

  Refers broadly to any group of people organized for a shared purpose (a company, charity, club); names the whole body providing a service, not just its leaders.

  泛指为共同目的组织起来的任何团体（公司、慈善机构、俱乐部等），指提供服务的整个机构本身，而不仅仅是其领导层。

  The organization relies on volunteers to deliver food to elderly residents.

  这个机构依靠志愿者为老年居民配送食物。

• administration

  Refers specifically to the group of people who govern a country or manage an organization; commonly used for a national government's leadership.

  特指治理一个国家或管理某机构的那群人，常用于指一届国家政府的领导层。

  The president's administration announced a new plan to cut unemployment.

  总统的政府宣布了一项旨在降低失业率的新计划。

Organization and administration can both mean a group of people. Organization refers broadly to any group organized for a shared purpose, such as a company or charity. Administration refers specifically to the people who govern a country or manage an organization.

这两个词都指由人组成的团体或管理层，容易混淆：organization 泛指为某个目的而组织起来的团体或机构本身，比如公司、慈善机构或俱乐部；administration 特指治理国家或管理某机构的领导层或管理层，常用于政府语境。这里不比较 organization 表示组织性、结构的含义，也不比较 administration 表示管理、实施某事这一动作含义。
