Hi, how would you call the person who is responsible for organizing a sports contest, concert, event, ...? I am not really happy with the word 'the organizer'.  SignatureDavid Homer J. Simpson: "It takes two to lie. One to lie and one to listen." > Hi, > > how would you call the person who is responsible for organizing a sports > contest, concert, event, ...? > > I am not really happy with the word 'the organizer'. Language is not concerned with your happiness. If money is involved promoter can be used but that is a slightly different thing. > Hi, > > how would you call the person who is responsible for organizing a sports > contest, concert, event, ...? > > I am not really happy with the word 'the organizer'. It depends on what they do. If they organise events, they are organisers; if they co-ordinate events, they are co-ordinators; etc. Don't go looking to invent special terms; the language is already rich enough. > Hi, > > how would you call the person who is responsible for organizing a sports > contest, concert, event, ...? Probably on the telephone.[1] If he was within earshot, I might just yell. > I am not really happy with the word 'the organizer'. It's not all that happy with you, either. How about "producer"? [1] In English it's "What would you call ...", not "How would you call ..." "How" asks for a method, not a label. SignatureBob Lieblich Joking on the square > Hi, > > how would you call the person who is responsible for organizing a sports > contest, concert, event, ...? > > I am not really happy with the word 'the organizer'. Impresario. SignatureJohn Varela Trade NEW lamps for OLD for email. > Hi, > > how _what_ > would you call the person who is responsible for organizing a sports > contest, concert, event, ...? > > I am not really happy with the word 'the organizer'. I am. Really. Adrian |
