If I were to say the word "baker" in Japanese...?

Question:


In reference myself, would I keep the ~san in pan'ya-san? Or would I just be pan'ya? But isn't that a bread store? How does pan'ya-san differ from pan'ya-shokunin?

Also, what are the other words for baker?

Answer:


>would I keep the ~san in pan'ya-san? Or would I just be pan'ya?

You can say both. But panya is common. Some people say panya san.

>How does pan'ya-san differ from pan'ya-shokunin?

Panya san is a baker store. Panya shokunin is someone (particularly with skill) who is working there.

>Also, what are the other words for baker?

Panya is most common.
