A footman sometimes served at the table as well. * butler指家庭的男管家，负责管理其他雇工、接待客人、安排膳食，以及打理各种私人事务；footman尤指旧时身着制服专门负责开门的人。footman有时也在餐桌旁服务。■ valet ˈvæleɪ, ˈvælɪt, NAmE also væˈleɪ [countable] a man's personal servant who takes care of his clothes, serves his meals, etc. （照管男主人衣食等的）贴身仆人，仆从◆His valet brought him his letters.他的贴身仆人给他送来了信件。ⓘ In modern American English a valet is a person who parks your car for you at a hotel or restaurant. 在现代美式英语中，valet指在旅馆或饭店为顾客停车的服务员◆Do they have valet parking?他们有代客泊车的服务吗？
