Fragen über die Beispielsätze mit, und die Definition und Benutzung von "Chairperson"

A: Chairperson is someone who leads a meeting, committee, organization, or event. You might also see chair, chairman, chairwoman. Chair or chairperson is used when you don't know the gender of the person because saying chairman (which was generally used before) is sexist or when you want to keep it non-gender specific.

A: I don't think you use 'chairperson' when describing food stalls. There might be another word that fits it. Also, you can use 'chairwoman' when you are referring to a 'she'.

A: I agree with mstiavictoria. I would probably say, "thank you, Mr. ---" or, "Thank you, Mr. Chairman/president, etc" and then begin your speech.
