幾天前，Venation說：「目前找到steward的意涵如下：
管家,管事 ，財產管理人，(工會、團體等的)幹事,理事;工會代表 ，【人】 (俱樂部、大學等的)伙食管理員 ， (客機、輪船等的)招待員,侍者;(船上的)廚務管理員;(展覽會、舞會、賽馬等的)籌備人」
這，應該是參考Yahoo！辭書（應加【美海軍】 管理軍官宿舍[食堂]的下級軍官）。

manage the domestic concerns, supervise other servants,
collect the rents or income, keep accounts, and the like.//
A person employed in a hotel, or a club, or on board a

《林語堂當代漢英詞典》：招待員 steward or usher；茶房 steward on ship；服務員 attendant, steward；冢宰 n., (AC) the chief steward；僕射 (a) gen. officer in charge of royal household, chamberlain, steward;
---可議：【教育部國語辭典】
僕射，：職官名。秦時設置，因古時重視武官，用善射的人掌理事物，漢以後各朝都據秦法而有此官。至唐時，左右僕射相當於宰相的職任。宋徽宗時改左右僕射為太宰﹑小宰，此後僕射之名不復存在。漢書˙卷十九˙百官公卿表上：僕射，秦官，自侍中﹑尚書﹑博士﹑郎皆有。古者重武官，有主射以督課之。
冢宰
職官名。周制，為百官之長，六卿之首。
後世稱吏部尚書為冢宰。文選˙劉琨˙勸進表：冢宰攝其綱，百辟輔其治。儒林外史˙第十八回：是我們這裡做過冢宰的胡老先生的公子胡三先生。他今朝小生日，同人都在那裡聚會。
對照：{Lord high steward}, formerly, the first officer of the
crown; afterward, an officer occasionally appointed, as
for a coronation, or upon the trial of a peer. [Eng.]
In Scotland, a magistrate appointed by the crown to
exercise jurisdiction over royal lands. --Erskine.

ゴンドールに、その敵の武器を与えてはくださらないか。
彼の者に対抗するために使おうぞ。
