单词 confrere
释义

confreren.

Brit. /ˈkɒnfrɛː/, /kɒnˈfrɛː/, /kənˈfrɛː/, U.S. /ˈkɑnˌfrɛ(ə)r/
Forms: Also 1500s confreer, 1600s confrier.
Etymology: Middle English confrere (compare frere, Friar), < French confrere (13th cent. in Littré) = Provençal confraire, Catalan confrare, Spanish co(n)frade, Italian confrate, medieval Latin confrāter, < con- together with + frāter brother. As a naturalized English word (of which the pronunciation would now be /kɒnˈfrɪə(r)/ or /-ˈfraɪə(r)/) it appears to have become obsolete in 17th cent.; but it has been taken back into frequent use as a borrowing from modern French, and is usually written confrère.
1. A fellow-member of a fraternity, religious order, college, guild, etc., a colleague in office.
