Non-elected government administrator

A person who works in the government office system, doing administrative work but not making laws or winning elections.

الگوی کاربرد: a bureaucrat in [a government department/agency]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse 'bureaucrat' (a person) with 'bureaucracy' (the system or organization) and 'bureaucratic' (an adjective). For example, they may say *'the bureaucrat of our country is very slow'* when they mean 'the bureaucracy of our country is very slow'.
