hussarn.

/hʊˈzɑː/

Forms: Also 1500s hussayre, hussare, 1600s husare, ( vs(s)aron).

Etymology: < Hungarian huszar, originally ‘freebooter, free-lance’, later ‘light horseman’, < Old Serbian husar , also gusar , hursar , gursar , kursar pirate, robber, freebooter, < Italian corsaro , corsare , corsair n.In the time of King Matthias Hunyady, in the second half of the 15th century, the word became applied to the Hungarian light horsemen, in which application it became known and used in the Western European languages: compare Polish, German husar, French hussard, in 18th cent. houssard, housard. In a Latin deed of armistice c1450, mention is made of ‘prædones aut Hwzarij hungari’, and in other Latin documents of the 15th cent. they are called huzarones, hussarones after praedones), whence occasionally vs(s)arons in English. (Before the history was known, the word was fancifully derived < Magyar husz twenty: see Magyar Nyelvör (Budapest) VI. 24, and Miklosich.)

a. One of a body of light horsemen organized in Hungary in the 15th cent., and long confined to the Hungarian army; hence, the name of light cavalry regiments formed in imitation of these, which were subsequently introduced, and still exist, in most European armies, including that of Great Britain.The dress of the Hungarian force set the type for that of the hussars of other nations, these being distinguished by uniforms of brilliant colours and elaborate ornament, two special characteristics being the dolman and busby (the former of which is now abandoned in the British army).
