person who starts and runs businesses
A person who starts and runs a business and takes risks with their own money and time.
Padrão de uso:
[someone] is an entrepreneur [in field]
Erro comum:
Learners sometimes confuse "entrepreneur" with "employer" or "businessman". An employer is anyone who gives people jobs, even if they did not start the company. An entrepreneur usually starts and grows the business. Spelling is also difficult: learners often write *enterpreneur* or *entreprenuer*; the correct spelling is **entrepreneur**. Remember that it is countable, so we say "an entrepreneur" and "many entrepreneurs".
