A person who entertains people by doing magic tricks that only look like real magic.

Kullanım kalıbı: [a] magician performs [a magic trick]
Sık yapılan hata:
Learners sometimes confuse "magician" with "musician" because the words look similar. A **magician** does magic tricks; a **musician** plays music. Some learners also think a magician uses real magic, but on stage it is only skill and illusion, not real supernatural power.
Eş anlamlılar

Kullanım kalıbı: [a] magician casts [a spell]
Sık yapılan hata:
Learners may confuse this fantasy meaning with the entertainer meaning. In a **real show**, a magician does tricks. In a **fantasy story**, a magician has real magic powers. Learners may also think "wizard" and "magician" are always different, but in many stories they are very close in meaning and can overlap.
Eş anlamlılar
wizard (Common fantasy word, especially for a male magic-user; often suggests an older, wise character.) | sorcerer (Fantasy word that can sound darker or more dangerous than "wizard" or "magician".)
Zıt anlamlılar
ordinary person (Highlights that unlike a magician, an ordinary person in the story has no magical powers.)

A person who is very, very good at something, so good that it seems almost like magic.

Kullanım kalıbı: [a] magician with [something]
Sık yapılan hata:
Learners sometimes think this use means the person does **real magic**. Here it is only a **metaphor** meaning "extremely skilled". Another common mistake is saying "magician of computers"; in natural English we say "magician **with** computers" or "computer magician".
Eş anlamlılar
wizard (Informal and often used metaphorically in the same way, especially in phrases like "computer wizard" or "math wizard".) | genius (Emphasizes very high natural intelligence or talent, without the playful "magic" image of "magician".)
Zıt anlamlılar
amateur (Suggests someone who is not very skilled and often does something only as a hobby, opposite of an expert "magician" in that field.)
