短释义
If you’re in detention, you probably did something wrong: you’re being confined against your will. The police hold people in detention, and so do military forces. Usually, detention is a short period of confinement, like if someone is arrested and then released.

One thing is true of both kinds of detention: no one wants to be there.
拘留是指监禁或监禁,通常时间很短。这也是对孩子放学后必须留下来的惩罚。
