- 1戶長、屋主、住戶（公文味）；佛教另指居士（在家眾，對出家人而言）
A householder is the person who owns a house, or who is in charge of it — the one the law or the landlord treats as responsible: bills, the census, the doorbell when official letters come. It is a slightly formal, official-sounding word. In everyday talk people say the owner, the tenant, or whoever lives there. You will meet householder on forms, in news about “local householders,” and in phrases like head of the household. It names one person, not the whole family. A second sense, which meet in religion more than in housing, is Buddhist: a householder is a lay person, someone who lives an ordinary family life rather than as a monk or nun. That meaning was borrowed from gahapati, literally “house-master.” Same English word, different world: one is about the building, the other about a way of life.
組成From Middle English housholdere: household + -er, the person who has or runs the household. The Buddhist sense is a meaning borrowed from Pali gahapati, “house-master.”
