stock vt.(為販售而)備有,貯存,儲備
作動詞時是『貯存、儲備』的意思,也就是儲備貨物供銷售。當你走進店裡,懶得自己找商品時,你可以問店員:
Do you stock English wines?
{你們有賣英國紅酒嗎?)This shop stocks a wide range of outdoor equipment.
這家店備有各種戶外用品。
stock up on... 大量儲備⋯⋯

have...in stock 有……的存貨
這裡的 stock 作名詞用,in stock 指的是『有存貨、有庫存』。當你在架上找不到想買的商品時,有可能是店家尚未補貨上架,你可以向店員詢問:

遺憾地是,您要買的金屬鉸鏈目前缺貨。
"sold out" 源自片語 be sold out,與片語 be out of stock 有相同之意,同指『賣完了/缺貨』的意思,而名詞 stock 在此即為『現貨、存貨』。
