一個女領位，在這種場合下，在餐館中，“女領位”是一個女人，
that says hello to you when you come in the restaurant - that greets you,
當你來餐廳時，向你問好的，
and she asks how many people are in your party,
她問你們有多少人用餐，
meaning how big is your group - how many people are in your group,
意思是你們這些人有多少——你們有多少人？
and then she takes you to a table.
然后她領你們去一張桌子。
The male version of this would be a host, "host."

So, a hostess is always a woman and host is a man.
所以，女領位永遠是女人，男領位是男人。
