    A compere (sometimes written compère) is the person who introduces the acts on a television programme, in a theatre, or at a live show — they welcome you, name the next singer or guest, fill the gaps, and keep the evening moving. It is mainly British; American English more often says host or emcee (MC). The word can also be a verb: to compere a show is to be that host. Though actually, the compere is not usually the star. They hold the show together so other people can come and go. The job is closer to Taiwan’s 主持人 than to a wedding 司儀.

    主持人（節目主持人）。英國說法；台灣日常就說主持人。婚禮司儀不是同一份工作
