1. 1隨行人員;身邊的班底。媒體有時直接說 entourage。

    An entourage is the group of people who go around with someone important — , guards, assistants, sometimes friends. A film star walking into a hotel with six people is arriving with an entourage. Presidents and pop singers travel with one; you and your do not. The word came from French and we kept the French spelling, so it still sounds a bit fancy. News and gossip use it a lot. Though actually it can feel a little cold, as if those people are just “around” the famous person, there because of the job, not because they are close for their own sake. It always means a group, not one .

組成Borrowed as it is from French entourage, from entourer “to surround.” English did not rebuild the word; it took the French one whole.
