騎士

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

• Structure: 騎士, read きし, combines the mounted-warrior element 騎 with 士, a person of a role or rank.
• Basic usage: It refers to a knight in a historical or fictional setting, such as a protector wearing armor.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

• Narrative role
  • The examples connect 騎士 with a castle, princess, and armor. It does not mean an ordinary rider or driver.
• Keep the role specific
  • The English equivalent here is knight, not journalist, article, or chauffeur despite possible ambiguity in Korean translation vocabulary.
