oppositorn.

Brit.

/əˈpɒzᵻtə/, U.S.

/əˈpɑzədər/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin, combined with an English element; perhaps modelled on a Latin lexical item, or perhaps modelled on a Italian lexical item, or perhaps modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: Latin opposit- , oppōnere , -or suffix.

Etymology: < classical Latin opposit-, past participial stem of oppōnere to set against (see oppone v., oppose v.) + -or suffix, probably after post-classical Latin oppositor (from 1292 in British sources), Italian oppositore (a1535; compare quot. 1598), or Middle French, French †oppositeur (1399).
