Vocabulary question no. 70: delivery man? repairman?
Dear All,
I'm trying to find one word to replace the underlined parts of these sentences:
1) Could you please call the man who was supposed to fix my computer and ask him if it's ready?
2) Could you please call an express-delivery company and ask for a delivery man to come and pick up my parcel?
The second sentence sounds particularly unnatural to me...
Thanks

I can't see any possibility for a single-word replacement for the words in (1). For (2), you could simply say 'someone'.

Can I call a man who repairs computers a mechanic or a repairman?
