Prime Minister
A prime minister or a premier is the head of the cabinet and the leader of the ministers in the executive branch of government, often in a parliamentary or semi-presidential system. Under those systems, a prime minister is not the head of state or a monarch, but rather the head of government, serving typically under a monarch in a democratic constitutional monarchy or under a president in a republican form of government.
In parliamentary systems fashioned after the Westminster system, the prime minister is the presiding and actual head of government and head of the executive branch. In such systems, the head of state or their official representative (e.g., monarch, president, governor-general) usually holds a largely ceremonial position, although often with reserve powers.
首相
首相或总理是内阁首脑和政府行政部门部长的领导人,通常采用议会制或半总统制。 在这些制度下,总理不是国家元首或君主,而是政府首脑,通常在民主君主立宪制的君主或共和政体的总统手下任职。
在威斯敏斯特制度之后形成的议会制度中,总理是政府的主要负责人和实际的政府首脑以及行政部门的首脑。 在这样的制度中,国家元首或其官方代表(例如君主、总统、总督)通常拥有主要的礼仪职位,但通常拥有备用权力。
