常见误用提醒

使用 alewife:She is an alewife who works in a coffee shop. → She is a barista who works in a coffee shop. (alewife 特指啤酒店的女主人,不适用于咖啡店;应使用 barista 或其他相关词汇。)

使用 alewife:The alewife is a modern term for female bartenders. → The alewife is a historical term for women who ran taverns. (alewife 是历史性词汇,指过去经营酒馆的女性,而非现代调酒师的通用称呼;应明确其历史语境。)

使用 innkeeper:The innkeeper is a hotel manager. → The innkeeper manages a small inn or tavern. (错误在于将"innkeeper"等同于现代大型酒店的经理。"innkeeper"特指经营小旅馆或客栈的人,规模较小,更具传统色彩;而"hotel manager"通常指大型酒店的经理,范围更广。)
