The person who decides what stays and what goes, then shapes the kept pieces into a finished whole. Picture someone with a pile of raw material — text, film, contributions — choosing, cutting, arranging until it's ready to go out. Every sense is some version of that gatekeeper-and-shaper: choosing what's in, leaving out the rest, putting the rest together.
From the word’s history
From Latin 'editor' — 'one who gives out, who puts forth', from 'edere' (e- 'out' + 'dare' to give): the person who brings a work out into the world. Choosing and shaping material so it can be put forth sits right on that root.
源自拉丁文 editor，意思是「把東西交出去、發布出來的人」，由 edere（e-「出」＋ dare「給」）而來：把一部作品帶到世人面前的人。把材料挑選、整理好讓它能發出去，正好坐在這個字根上。
