mortal（凡人，暗含死亡）加表职业的 -ician（如 physician），联想“照管 mortal 的从业者”就是殡葬师。
语域：neutral 常见场景：职业介绍、正式书面描述、葬礼相关行业说明 该词多用于职业或正式语境，日常口语中较少使用，比较常见于殡葬行业相关的介绍或正式书面描述。
这些词都以 -ician 结尾，词尾都读 /ʃən/，与 mortician 的尾韵相同。politician 和 optician 的重音都在 -cian 前，拼写和重音位置与 mortician 最接近。musician、physician、magician、electrician 也押同样的尾韵，但拼写中的 c 不读 /k/，而是与前面字母组合成 /ʃ/；electrician 比 mortician 多一个 /tr/。注意 -cian 与 -tion 都常读 /ʃən/，但重音位置和拼写不同，不要混淆。
