Picture the man who holds the keys to a place other people use: he owns the room, the flat, the land, and others pay him to be there. In Britain the same word covers the man behind the bar of a pub — the place is his, and everyone else is a guest in it.
可以想成：一個握著鑰匙的人——房間、公寓、那塊地是他的，別人付錢才能待在裡面。在英國，同一個字也用在酒館吧檯後面那位老闆身上：那個地方是他的，其他人都是客人。這個字本身指男性，女性是 landlady。
