How to use 负责人
负责人 is a neutral, fairly formal word for the person responsible for a project, department, event, or place. You often hear it in workplaces, on notices, and when someone asks who to talk to. Example: 请问，这里的负责人是谁？(Qǐngwèn, zhèlǐ de fùzérén shì shéi?) Excuse me, who is in charge here?
Break it into 负责 (fùzé), to be responsible, plus 人 (rén), person. The person (人) who carries the responsibility (负责) is the person in charge.
Common mistake: Learners often write 负 (fù) as 页 (yè, page) or 贞, because all three share 贝 at the bottom. 负 has a small 𠂊 shape on top, not a horizontal stroke. Also keep the tones as fourth, second, second: fù zé rén.
