    「trainee」指「在公司或組織裡一邊工作、一邊接受訓練的人」,中文常說見習生或受訓生。常見說法:a trainee teacher(實習/見習老師)、a trainee reporter(見習記者)、a graduate trainee(大學剛畢業的訓練生)。可以想成:人已經進了職場,但還在學這份工作的本領。它跟近鄰容易並排:student 多半在學校上課;beginner 強調剛起步;apprentice 常指跟師傅學手藝;trainee 強調「在工作崗位上被訓練」。

core核心畫面

Picture someone already inside the workplace but still learning the job: they have the badge, they do real work, and someone is teaching them as they go. The ending -ee marks the person on the receiving end of the action.

可以想成:一個已經進到職場、但還在學這份工作的人——識別證有了,做的是真的事,同時有人在旁邊帶。字尾 -ee 標記的是「承受動作的那一方」,這一組還有 employee(被雇的人)、interviewee(被面試的人),對照 -er 那一組(employer、trainer)就很好記。
