单词 financier
释义

financiern.

Brit. /fᵻˈnansɪə/, /fʌɪˈnansɪə/, U.S. /ˌfɪnənˈsɪ(ə)r/, /ˌfaɪˌnænˈsɪ(ə)r/
Forms: 1500s– financier, 1700s– financeer (now nonstandard (chiefly U.S.)), 1700s– finançier.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French financier.
Etymology: < Middle French, French financier person concerned with or skilled in finance (1494), (in pre-Revolutionary France) tax farmer (1549; already c1440 as financiere in the sense ‘wealthy person’) < finance finance n.1 + -ier -eer suffix1. Compare slightly later financer n.Compare German Finanzier (early 17th cent. as Financier ), and also Dutch financier usurer (1511), banker (late 17th cent.). Specific forms. With the form financeer compare -eer suffix1. Specific senses. In sense 3 after French financier (1864 or earlier in this sense, in gateau financier ). The semantic motivation for the name is uncertain. It has been suggested that the cake is so called on account of its traditional rectangular mould, which resembles a bar of gold. Pronunciation. The form financeer reflects the usual pronunciation in the 18th cent. with stress on the final syllable (both Sheridan (1780) and Walker (1791) give only this pronunciation for their lemma financier), and this remains the usual pronunciation of the word in U.S. English. The pronunciation with stress on the second syllable (now standard in British English) is not recorded in British dictionaries until the last quarter of the 19th cent. (Stormonth (1877), Annandale (1883), Encycl. Dict. (1884)).
1. In France: a tax farmer (see farmer n.2 1a); an administrator or collector of taxes. Cf. financer n. 1. historical in later use.The system of privatized tax collection involving such tax farmers was abolished during the French Revolution.
