Merchant

edit

Among many other edits, I've added 'ship' after the word 'merchant' in the table. A commercial vessel is a merchant ship or merchantman. A merchant is a wholesale trader especially with foreign countries. I've looked at three dictionaries and none of them call a commercial ship simply a 'merchant'.
