The originator is the person who first has the idea and gets it started. If a game, a , a plan, or a product began with someone, that person is the originator. It is a little formal — you meet it in news, history, and work writing more than in everyday talk, where people might just say the person who started it. Though actually, inventor fits best when there is a machine or a patent; originator is wider. You can be the originator of a joke, a campaign, or a way of teaching. It points at the start, not at everyone who later helped.
創始人、原創者、發起人
