spartan 是形容词,不是名词。`a spartan` 特指“古斯巴达人”,而若想表达“生活简朴朴素的人”,应直接使用形容词作表语:`He is spartan.`(或 `He leads a spartan life.`)。加上不定冠词会把形容词误用为名词,导致意思改变。
Not this

Use this
My father is very strict; he makes us study all night.
spartan 意为“简朴的、克己的”或“斯巴达的”,并不表示“严格的”。此处想表达“严格的”应使用 strict。用 spartan 会造成词义混淆,让人理解为“生活清苦”而非“要求严格”。
