speaker or talker?用 speaker 还是 talker？
Talker is used when you are talking about how much sb talks or how well they talk. It is not used for the person who is or was talking. * talker 用以指说话多或少，或者话说得如何的人，不用以指正在或曾经在说话的人：◆I looked round to see who the talker was. You can say that sb is a good/persuasive speaker but that means that they are good at making speeches. If you mean that they speak well in conversation, use talker. * good/persuasive speaker 指的是擅长演讲的人。如果指健谈或能言善辩的人就用 talker。
