person or organization that buys
A person or company that buys something.
Padrão de uso:
a purchaser of [something]
Erro comum:
Learners often use "customer" or "consumer" when "purchaser" is better. Use "purchaser" in formal, legal, or business writing, especially in contracts or when talking about who has legal rights after buying something. Also, some learners try to use "purchaser" as a verb (e.g., "He purchasered a car"); the correct verb is "purchase" and the noun for the person is "purchaser".
