  1. 1nB1/rɪˈpɔːrtər/ · /rɪˈpɔːtə/記者

    逐字里歐的阿姨是一份地方報紙的記者，而且她幾乎每天都寫一篇新的報導。

    reporter 可以想成就是「report（報導）+ -er（做這件事的人）」長出來的字——去問、去查、把發生的事說給大家聽的那個人。它跟 journalist 的差別在範圍：journalist 是整個新聞這一行的人（寫專欄、當編輯的也算），reporter 特別指跑到現場去找消息、發問的那一個。報紙上的 reporter 用寫的，電視或廣播上的 reporter 用說的，兩種都算。

core核心畫面

You can picture a reporter as the person sent out to where something is happening, who then brings it back and tells everyone else: goes to the scene, finds out what happened, and carries it to the newspaper, the television, or the radio.

可以想成「被派到現場、再把事情帶回來講給大家聽的人」：哪裡出了事就往哪裡去，問出到底發生什麼，然後寫成新聞或對著鏡頭講出來。這個字的重心在「去找、再傳回來」這條動線——report 本來就是把消息帶回來，加上 -er 就是做這件事的人。
