用法
- A performance stage - 站在舞台上 (zhàn zài wǔtái shàng) stand on stage; measure word 个/座.
- Very common figuratively as an arena/platform for action: 历史舞台 (lìshǐ wǔtái) the stage of history, 人生舞台 life's stage, 施展才华的舞台 a stage to show one's talent.
- So it's both the literal boards and a metaphor for one's field of action.
