regratern.

Brit.

/rᵻˈɡreɪtə/, U.S.

/ˌriˈɡreɪdər/

Forms: Middle English regratere, Middle English– regrater, 1500s regratar, 1700s regretter, 1800s– regerater (English regional (Devon)); Scottish pre-1700 regraittar, pre-1700 regraitter, pre-1700 regratar, pre-1700 regrater, pre-1700 regratir, pre-1700 regrattair, pre-1700 regreater, pre-1700 regreitar, pre-1700 regretar, pre-1700 regreter.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French regrater; French regratere.

Etymology: Partly < Anglo-Norman regrater male retailer (1219 or earlier, frequent as occupational surname: see below; compare Anglo-Norman and Middle French regratier (beginning of the 12th cent. in Old French; French (now rare) regrattier ); probably < regrater regrate v.¹ (although this is first attested later) + -er -er suffix²), and partly < Anglo-Norman regratere (feminine noun) female retailer (1301 or earlier: see below; compare Middle French (rare) regratiere (1292 in Old French)), feminine form corresponding to regrater . Compare post-classical Latin regratarius (12th cent.; frequently from 13th cent. in British sources), and perhaps also the nouns in other Romance languages cited at regrate v.¹, although it is unclear whether there is any etymological connection between them and the French and post-classical Latin nouns (see discussion at regrate v.¹). Compare slightly earlier regrator n. and later regrate v.¹Anglo-Norman regrater, masculine noun, and regratere, feminine noun both occur as occupational surnames (compare Geoffrey le Regrater (1219), Agnes la Regratere (1301)). The following probably likewise shows the Anglo-Norman word, rather than earlier borrowing into Middle English:1288 in W. Hudson Leet Jurisdict. Norwich (1892) 28 De Hugone de London, Regrater.

Now rare (chiefly historical).

1. A person who buys commodities (esp. food) in order to sell them on at a profit; a retailer. Also in extended use. Cf. regrate v.¹
