Etymology: < French troubadour (16th cent. in Godefroy Compl.), < Provençal trobador (= Catalan trobador , Spanish trovador , Portuguese trovador , Italian trovatore ), agent-noun < Provençal trobar , Spanish trovar , Portuguese trovar , Italian trovare , French trouver to find, invent, compose in verse; compare trouvère n.The origin of the verb itself is questioned. As it exists in most of the Romanic languages, it is generally held to be late popular Latin. Diez explained it as formed by metathesis from Latin turbāre to disturb, through the sense ‘turn up’. Compare for the form French troubler , Old French trubler , from late Latin *turbulāre : see Etymol. Wörterbuch ed. 4, s.v.; compare also the Neapolitan controvare from Latin conturbāre . Another conjecture in Du Cange would take the Romanic forms < medieval Latin tropus , trope n. 2, a verse or versicle, whence *troþāre. Both of these, and other conjectures, present difficulties.

a. One of a class of lyric poets, living in southern France, eastern Spain, and northern Italy, from the 11th to the 13th centuries, who sang in Provençal (langue d'oc), chiefly of chivalry and gallantry, sometimes including wandering minstrels and jongleurs.
