常見錯誤
❖ 'I asked the barman for water' (in the US). ✅ 'I asked the bartender for water.' — In American English 'bartender' is the standard word; 'barman' sounds British or old-fashioned to US readers.
❖ 'The bartender cooked our dinner.' ✅ 'The bartender made our drinks.' — A bartender prepares and serves drinks, not food (unless the bar also has a kitchen).
