Cách sử dụng
The word "yeoman" is an old-fashioned term that was used in feudal times to describe a freeholder who owned a small piece of land. Today, the word is mainly used to refer to someone who works hard and is dedicated to their job or duty, regardless of their social status, often in agricultural or manual labor roles. It can also be used to describe someone who is skilled in a particular area or is knowledgeable in a certain field. For example, you might refer to a writer as a yeoman of the pen or a doctor as a yeoman of medicine. The word is not commonly used in modern English, but it can be seen in historical or literary contexts.
