短释义:
Besides the “wooden stake or strip” meaning, you can also use picket as a verb to mean “protest or strike.” When disgruntled workers go on strike, they often picket outside their workplace, holding signs and chanting. You can also call one of these protesting workers a picket. The original meaning, from the 1680s, is “a pointed stake used as a defensive weapon.” And the original picket line was a line of military troops.
纠察桩是栅栏上的垂直木板。您可能有一个白色的尖桩篱栅围住您的整个前院,所以您的小狗无法逃脱。

除了“木桩或木条”的含义外,您还可以使用纠察队作为动词来表示“抗议或罢工”。当心怀不满的工人举行罢工时,他们经常在工作场所外举行纠察队,举着标语并高呼口号。您也可以将其中一名抗议工人称为纠察队。源自 1680 年代的原义是“用作防御武器的尖头木桩”。而原来的纠察线是军队的一条线。

词源:
picket (n.)1680s, “pointed post or stake (usually of wood, for defense against cavalry, etc.),” from French piquet “pointed stake,” from piquer “to pierce” (see pike (n.1)). Also “one of a number of pointed bars used to make a fence,” hence picket-fence (1817). The sense of “troops posted in front of an army to give notice of the approach of the enemy” is recorded from 1761; that of “striking workers stationed to prevent others from entering a factory” is from 1867. Picket-line is by 1856 in the military sense, by 1945 of labor strikes.Related entries & more
下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
尖桩(n.)1680s,“尖柱或木桩(通常是木头的,用于防御骑兵等)”,源自法语 piquet“尖桩”,源自 piquer“刺穿”(参见 pike (n.1)) 。也指“用来制作栅栏的众多尖条之一”,因此称为栅栏(picket-fence,1817)。 “军队驻扎在军队前面,通报敌人的逼近”的含义是从 1761 年开始记录的; “为阻止他人进入工厂而进行罢工的工人”一词始于 1867 年。纠察线是 1856 年军事意义上的纠察线,到 1945 年是劳工罢工。相关条目及更多
