常見錯誤

❌She is a yoga practicer.
✅She is a yoga practitioner.
💡the usual noun for a person who follows a skilled discipline is 'practitioner', not 'practicer'.
❌My brother is a practitioner at the hospital.
✅My brother is a doctor at the hospital.
💡when you know the exact job, everyday English often uses the specific title instead of the broader, more formal word 'practitioner'.
