单词 retardataire
释义

retardatairen.adj.

Brit. /rᵻˌtɑːdəˈtɛː/, U.S. /rəˌtɑrdəˈtɛ(ə)r/, /riˌtɑrdəˈtɛ(ə)r/
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French retardataire.
Etymology: < French retardataire late (in paying) (1808 as adjective, 1812 as noun), late (in arriving) (1825 as adjective and noun), slow in development (in tastes, etc.) (1875 as adjective, 1885 as noun) < classical Latin retardāt- , past participial stem of retardāre retard v. + French -aire -ary suffix1. The metaphorical and transferred uses found in English are apparently not attested until later in French (as adjective or noun), although this may be an accident of the historical record.
Chiefly Art.
A. n.
1. A person who appears behind the times or who is resistant to innovation, a conservative; spec. an artist working in a style characteristic of an earlier period. Now rare.
