event
1
first public performance or showing
The first public time a movie, play, TV show, or similar work is shown or performed.
Vzorec užití:
the premiere of [something]; [something]'s premiere
Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse "premiere" (the first showing) with "premier" (meaning main or most important, as in "the premier football league" or a political leader in some countries). Another mistake is using "premiere" to mean just any showing, not specifically the first official public one.
Synonyma
opening (Often used for the first performance of a play or show, especially in theater.)

debut (Focuses on a performer or thing appearing for the first time, not always in a formal public event.)

to show or perform first time
To show or perform a movie, play, TV show, or similar work for the public for the first time.
Vzorec užití:
to premiere [something]; [something] premieres [time/place]
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "premiere" with a person as the direct object, e.g. *"They premiered the actor in this film"*. Instead, premiere is used with the work: "They premiered the film" or "The actor makes his debut in this film." Another mistake is using it for any showing, not just the first public one.
Synonyma
debut (Very similar in meaning; "debut" as a verb is slightly more general and can be used for products, people, or ideas appearing first, not only shows.)
|
launch (Common for products or services; slightly more business-focused than "premiere".)
Antonyma
retire (To stop performing or showing something, the opposite of presenting it for the first time.)

first in a series; debut
Describes the first episode, show, or release in a series, or the first public time something is shown.
Vzorec užití:
premiere [episode/show/issue/event]
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes spell this as "premier" when they mean the first episode or issue, or they use "premiere" as an adjective in contexts where simple "first" is more natural (e.g. *"my premiere day at school"* instead of "my first day at school").
Synonyma
debut (Often used in similar contexts; "debut" can sound slightly more formal or artistic when used as an adjective.)
|
first (More general and basic; "premiere" is more specific to media and events.)
