person or group that benefits
A person or group that gets help, money, or another good result from something.
Padron ng paggamit:
a beneficiary of [something]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners often confuse 'beneficiary' with 'benefactor'. A 'beneficiary' receives help, money, or benefits, while a 'benefactor' gives them. Another mistake is using 'beneficiary' when they mean 'beneficial'; 'beneficial' is an adjective meaning 'good' or 'helpful', not a person.
Mga kasingkahulugan
recipient (Neutral term for someone who receives something; does not always carry the idea of benefit as strongly as 'beneficiary'.)
|
advantage-holder (Less common descriptive term that emphasizes having an advantage; more technical or explanatory than 'beneficiary'.)
Mga kasalungat
benefactor (Refers to the one who gives help or money, the opposite role of the one who receives it.)
|
donor (A person who gives money or goods, contrasting with the person or group that receives them.)

named recipient in legal document
A person or group whose name is written in a will, insurance paper, or trust so they will get money or property when a certain event happens.
Padron ng paggamit:
a beneficiary of [a will / an insurance policy / a trust]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use 'heir' when they mean 'beneficiary'. 'Heir' often suggests a family member who receives property when someone dies, while 'beneficiary' is any person or organization named in a legal document, including charities or friends. Another mistake is saying 'the will beneficiary person'; simply say 'the beneficiary of the will'.
Mga kasingkahulugan
heir (Often used for someone who inherits property, especially from family; may be based on law or custom rather than being specifically named in a document.)
|
legatee (A legal term for a person who receives a legacy under a will; more technical and less common in everyday speech than 'beneficiary'.)
Mga kasalungat
testator (The person who makes a will; the opposite legal role to the person named to receive assets.)
|
policyholder (The person who owns an insurance policy, often the one who names the beneficiary rather than receiving the payout.)
