English term

a person working in a museum

English to French Other Other
What should a person that works in a museum be called? I just need a good French term. A person who sells tickets, helps the visitors - simply a "museum employee".
Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): writeaway

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

conservateur

Depends, of course, which one do you mean... Here is one suggestion

Lettres choisies et présentées par Guy Krivopissko, conservateur du Musée de la Résistance nationale, préface de François Marcot, post-face de Robert Hossein
or
Le Pr Massamba Lam, Conservateur du musée d’Art africain : « Oui au retour des œuvres en Afrique, si les conditions de conservation existent »
