喜樂美語
  1. 1nA2/ˈfɑːrmər/ · /ˈfɑːmə/農夫；農場主人

    Someone who owns a farm or is in charge of running one, growing crops or keeping animals on it.

    示範例句 · Example

    Mr. Lin is a farmer. He grows rice near Yilan.

    逐字林先生是一位農夫。他在宜蘭附近種稻。

    farmer 指的是「這座農場是他的，或由他經營」的人——他決定種什麼、養什麼、什麼時候收成。可以想成 farm（種東西、養動物的那塊地）加上 -er（做這件事的人），意思就像從這裡長出來的。中文的「農夫」比較廣，農場上做農事的人都算；英文分得細一點，只是在農場上班、領薪水幫忙的人叫 farm worker 或 farmhand，farmer 是那個扛下整座農場的人。

core核心畫面

Picture the person the land belongs to, or the person who runs it: they decide what goes in the ground this year, when to harvest, how many animals the place can feed. The word names a role tied to a piece of land — not just someone doing farm work, but the one whose land or business it is.

可以想成：站在那片地上、說了算的那個人。今年種什麼、什麼時候收、養多少頭牛，都是他在決定。這個字指的是一個跟土地綁在一起的身份——擁有農場、或負責經營農場的人；重點在「這塊地是他的、或由他當家」，不只是「有在做農事的人」。
