- 1愛存錢的人、儲蓄者
A saver is someone who puts money aside instead of spending it all, often in a bank. Banks like the word when they mean ordinary people with savings accounts. It is a quiet, money-talk word, not poetic. Though actually, English also glues -saver onto other words: a is a trick that saves time, a screensaver is the moving picture on a computer, a lifesaver is something — or someone — that gets you out of trouble. Those are not “a person who saves money.” This sense is the money person. Do not mix it with saviour, who rescues you; the two look like family, and they are, but they do different jobs.
From the word’s history
save + -er.
由 save（存、救）加 -er（…的人）而成。
組成save + -er (a person who does that). Save itself travelled a long way from Latin salvāre, “to make safe.”
