<span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">English "tank" also means a container, usually a large metal one
for storing liquids (water tank, oil tank, gasoline tank), or to hold gasses
under pressure (oxygen tank, scuba tank). It came to mean "an armored, tracked
vehicle" in World War I, when the British, in order to maintain operational security
while the vehicles were still in the design and development stage, referred to
the new vehicles as "tanks" to disguise the true nature of what was being
developed.</span></p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Another use of "tank" in English is for a jail cell, especially
for holding people who have been arrested for public drunkenness – usually called
a "drunk tank."</span></p>
<p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">There is also the phrase "to be in the tank (for someone)," meaning
to be someone's supporter, and usually implying that the person being supported
has paid off the supporter or promised some favor, or suggesting that someone
who should be impartial is really working to help one side.</span></p>
