is the one in charge of a household, a business or an animal, and it turns up constantly in the older literature where servants and lodgings are everywhere. The feminine is the mistress of the house or the landlady, and is to run a household, which is why o is housekeeping. Do not confuse it with , one letter away and a very different job: that is a master of a craft or an art, the sense in majstroverko, a masterpiece. As a host at a party you are equally a gastiganto, the one who does the guesting to someone.
