person who commits murder
A person who illegally and on purpose kills another person.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone] is a [adjective] murderer
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "murder" and "murderer". "Murder" is the act (e.g. "The murder happened at night"), while "murderer" is the person (e.g. "They arrested the murderer"). Another confusion is with "killer", which can be used more broadly for any person or thing that kills (e.g. "shark attack killer", "silent killer" for a disease), while "murderer" almost always refers to a person who commits the crime of murder.
