| 释义 | plasterern.Origin: Either (i) formed within English, by derivation. Or (ii) a borrowing from French. Etymons: plaster n., -er suffix1; plaster v., -er suffix1; French plastrer.Etymology: Either  <  plaster n. + -er suffix1, or  <  Anglo-Norman plastrer, plaisterer (compare Old French, Middle French plastrier   (c1268; French regional plâtrier  ))  <  plaster  , plastrer  plaster v.   + -er  -er suffix2; in later use also  <  plaster v. + -er suffix1. Compare post-classical Latin plastrarius, plasterarius (from 1275 and 1395 respectively in British sources). Compare also Middle French plastreur (1395–96 as plaestreur; French plâtreur).Apparently attested earlier in a surname: Robert le Plastrer (1276), although it is unclear whether this is to be interpreted as reflecting the Anglo-Norman or the Middle English word. Compare the following earlier examples, although it is unclear whether these show the Anglo-Norman or Middle English word:1368    in  L. F. Salzman Building in Eng.
