Chair of the Town Council Explanation: In English, especially in the U.S., "président" means "chair" ("chairman," "chairwoman") when it describes someone who presides over a group such as a legislative entity, city council, etc. Our town and city councils do not have presidents. "Chair" is the accepted gender-neutral term (right out of Robert's Rules of Order), but many still use "chairman" and "chairwoman." Some even say "chairperson." |
