0 the most important male servant in a house, usually responsible for organizing the other servants
1 the most important male servant in a house:
The British butler was brilliantly played by Anthony Hopkins.
She had not long been in the cottage when the butler arrived.
Then the butler entered the room: "Some one wishes to speak to your ladyship on the telephone, immediately," he said.
Two men were standing there, hat in hand whispering to the butler.
We have all had quite enough of him,' said her ladyship, as the butler announced dinner.
Other household chores are handled by the butler, bearer or boy; the second-boy, house-boy, verandah-boy, room-boy, room-service-boy, and dressing-boy (where boy means 'male servant').
The relationship between the butler and his master has been most fruitful in this respect.
Butler's (1997) analysis of hate speech can perhaps shed light on this issue.
