A peripatetic person travels from place to place to do their job, instead of staying in one office, one school, or one shop. In British English especially, a peripatetic teacher moves between schools — a music teacher who visits three schools in one week, for example.

A peripatetic person一個peripatetic的人 travels from place to place會到處跑 to do their job為了做他們的工作，instead of staying in one office, one school, or one shop而不是待在同一個辦公室、同一間學校，或同一家店裡。In British English especially尤其在英式英文裡，a peripatetic teacher一個peripatetic的老師 moves between schools會在不同學校之間跑——a music teacher比如一個音樂老師 who visits three schools in one week一星期跑三間學校，for example舉例來說。

It can also be a noun: “a peripatetic” meaning that kind of worker.

It can also be也可以是 a noun名詞："a peripatetic"「a peripatetic」（一個peripatetic的人） meaning指的就是 that kind of worker那種到處跑的工作者。

It is a rather educated, slightly old-fashioned word. Most people would just say “travelling,” “on the road,” or “who goes from place to place.” Though actually, the word is older than modern jobs: it first described Aristotle’s school in Athens, because he walked around as he taught.

It is這是 a rather educated, slightly old-fashioned word一個相當有學問、有點老派的詞。Most people大多數人 would just say只會說 "travelling"「travelling」（到處跑），"on the road"「on the road」（在路上跑），or "who goes from place to place"或「who goes from place to place」（到處跑來跑去的人）。Though actually不過其實，the word這個詞 is older than modern jobs比現代這些工作還要古老：it first described它最早是用來描述 Aristotle's school in Athens亞里斯多德在雅典的學校，because he walked around as he taught因為他教書時會邊走邊教。

That “walking around” picture is still inside the word, even when we use it for someone who drives from school to school.

That "walking around" picture那個「邊走邊做」的畫面 is still inside the word還是留在這個詞裡面，even when即使在 we use it for someone who drives from school to school我們現在用它指一個開車在學校之間跑的人的時候 也一樣。
