    逐字奶奶是一家小食品公司的一位股東。

    「stockholder」是「擁有公司股票的人」中文最自然是「股東」。核心畫面可以想成「握住公司一小塊所有權的人」——stock 是股份,holder 是握住/持有的人。especially American English;英國英語常說 shareholder,意思一樣。跟 stockbroker 分開:stockholder 是自己持有股份的人;stockbroker 是幫別人買賣股票的人。常見搭配:stockholders meeting(股東會)、pay a dividend to stockholders(發股息給股東)。

core核心畫面

Picture a company cut into many equal slices, and someone holding a handful of them. Holding those slices means owning a piece of the company itself — which is why such a person gets a vote at the annual meeting and a share of the profits, not just a receipt.

可以想成:一家公司被切成很多等份,有人手上握著其中幾份。握著那些份額,等於擁有這家公司的一小塊——所以這個人在股東會上有投票權,也分得到利潤,而不只是拿到一張收據。中文就叫「股東」。
