1. 1

    A curator is the person in charge of a museum, a zoo, or a similar collection: they look after what is there and decide what the public will see. In a museum that means keeping objects safe and planning shows. In a zoo it often means being responsible for a group of animals and the staff who care for them. Younger people, and people online, now stretch the word: a “curator” of playlists, outfits, or posts is just someone who chooses and arranges things for others. That looser use is common, but the older job-title meaning is still the one on museum doors. It is a respectful word, not slang.

    館長;策展人(博物館、動物園的負責人。台灣講策劃展覽時很常說「策展人」;動物園則較常說館長或管理員)
