Landlord
含义: The person who runs or owns a pub.
The landlord (male) or landlady (female) is the person who holds the license and runs the pub. They're often the face of the establishment, setting the tone and maintaining order. A good landlord makes a pub; a bad one ruins it. Many landlords become local characters.
