premiere vs. premier
辨析:两个词的词源其实相同,都来自法语,但意思不大一样。前者指电影剧目等的“首映”,是名词。后者作为形容词是“最重要的、领先的”,留学文书里另一个吹捧学校的词。作为名词的话则是“总理”的意思。
例句:
You can catch the two-hour premiere this Sunday night on AMC.
He led the institution on an ambitious path to become one of the premier public research universities in the nation.
