Person who is new to something
Someone who has just started to learn or do something and is not experienced yet.
用法パターン:
[someone] is a beginner at [something]
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes confuse "beginner" (a person) with "beginning" (the start of something). For example, "I am a beginning" is incorrect; it should be "I am a beginner". Another common issue is using the wrong preposition: we usually say "a beginner at chess" or "a beginner in English", not "a beginner of chess".
