单词 moneyer
释义

moneyern.

Brit. /ˈmʌnɪə/, U.S. /ˈməniər/
Forms: Middle English moneour, Middle English moneur, Middle English monewere (transmission error), Middle English moneyere, Middle English moniour, Middle English monyere, Middle English monyour, Middle English monyowre, Middle English 1600s moneyour, Middle English–1700s monyer, Middle English– moneyer, 1500s–1700s monier.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French moneour, monnoyeur.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman moneour, moneiour minter, money changer ( < moneer , monoier money v. + -our -or suffix) and Middle French monnoyeur minter, money changer (1332; compare Old French monier , monnier , monoier , 13th cent.; French monnayeur ) < monnoyer money v. + -eur -eur suffix. Compare classical Latin or post-classical Latin monētārius coiner, minter (see monetary adj.; also in sense ‘money changer, banker’, from 10th cent. in British sources). Compare also post-classical Latin moneator (13th cent. in British sources). Compare earlier money-maker n. and minter n.1The word is perhaps attested earlier as a surname, e.g. Johannes le Moneer (1207), Gilb. le muneur (1230), Will. le Moyner (1249), though it is unclear whether these are to be interpreted as Middle English or Anglo-Norman.
