单词 dragoman
释义

dragomann.

/ˈdraɡəmən/
Forms: Plural dragomans, dragomen. Forms: Middle English, 1600s–1700s drogman, Middle English–1700s droge-, 1500s drag-, druga-, 1500s–1800s drogue-, 1600s draguman, drogaman, drogerman, druggaman, druggoman, drugoman, 1600s–1700s druggerman, drogoman, (1800s dracoman), 1500s– dragoman. See also truchman n.
Etymology: < French dragoman, drogman, in Old French drugemen = Spanish dragoman, Italian dragomanno, medieval Latin dragumannus, late Greek δραγούμανος, < Old Arabic targumān, now tarjumān, tarjamān, turjumān, interpreter, < targama, tarjama to interpret = Chaldee targēm, (whence targum). From 14th cent. commonly treated as a compound of English man with plural dragomen; in 19th cent. more frequently dragomans. The variants are due to the varying vocalization of the Arabic word, and the passage of Old Arabic g into j . Forms closer to the modern Arabic are Spanish trujaman , medieval Latin turchemannus , Italian turcimanno , French truchement , English tourcheman , trudgeman , truchman n.
a. An interpreter; strictly applied to a man who acts as guide and interpreter in countries where Arabic, Turkish, or Persian is spoken.
