Deduce the meaning of a word

The photo shows stunning Ljubljana Railway Station in Ljubljana, Slovenia. It may sound funny, but since a sign of the station showed ŽELEZNIŠKA POSTAJA, I guessed a post office was contained somewhere in the station building. However, a Slovenian word postaja means station in English, not post office. My guess was not even close to accurate. Even so, I could send some postcards from Ljubljana, Slovenia and my recipients were happy to receive beautiful Slovenian postcards. I bought several postcards and stamps together at a convenience-store like place in the station and dropped them into a post box nearby the station.
