Cách sử dụng
The word 'mercenary' refers to a person who is hired to fight in a war or engage in other risky activities for money, rather than because of a belief in the cause they are fighting for. The term can also be used to describe someone who works purely for financial gain, without consideration for other factors such as morality or ethics. It is important to note that while 'mercenary' is often associated with soldiers, it can also refer to any paid professional who uses their skills or expertise for personal financial gain rather than a sense of duty or altruism.
