单词 faitour
释义

faitourn.

/ˈfeɪtə/
Forms: Middle English–1600s faytor, faytour(e, faytowre, 1500s fayter, feytour, Middle English– faitour.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman faitour, Old French faitor doer, maker < Latin factōr-em : see factor n. The special sense of ‘impostor’ seems to be peculiarly Anglo-Norman and English; compare Old French faiture sorcery, spell.
Obsolete exc. archaic.
1. An impostor, cheat; esp. a vagrant who shams illness or pretends to tell fortunes.Apparently already obsolescent in 1568, as Grafton Chron. II. 598 glosses it ‘as much to say as loyterer, vagabond, or begger’. Sir Walter Scott often uses it archaically.
