interlopev.

/ɪntəˈləʊp/
Etymology: Evidently < inter- prefix 1a + lope, dialect form of leap v., as in land-loper, or the cognate Middle Dutch and Low German lôpen, Dutch loopen, to run.The actual history of the words interlope , interloper , is somewhat obscure. Our earliest examples belong to the end of the 16th cent. No form nor cognate of these words is found in any other language until after 1700, when the English noun was adopted in French as interlopre (Savary Dict. de Comm. 1723), now interlope , applied to a ship, and to a limited extent in Dutch and Low German (enterlopen in Halma, 1758–61, enterloper in Bremisches Wbch. 1767). In Dutch enterlooper is expressly stated in 1768 to be ‘van de Engelse ontleend’, borrowed < English, and is explained to mean the same thing as the proper Dutch term lorrendraaijer , used from the end of the 16th cent. Interlope , interloper were thus of English formation. About 1600, interlopers , intermeddlers , stragglers , straggling Englishmen , occur as appellations of the same class of persons (see interloper n. 1a, intermeddler n. c). Some of these synonyms suggest connection with land-loper, ‘vagabond, vagrant, straggler’, in common use before 1580 in place of the earlier land-leaper (1362–1621), lope being the form of leap in eastern and some north-midland dialects (= northern dialect loup, lowp). It seems probable therefore that the two elements of interloper are identical with those of inter-meddler and land-loper respectively; at least, this seems more likely than that the word should have been compounded of the Latin and English prefix inter- and the Dutch or Low German lôpen, loopen to run, lôper, looper runner, a combination which could not well have arisen in England, and of which we have no historical indication in any foreign parts where English and Dutch traders came in contact. The earliest known references to the practices of interlopers are in connection with the Russia Company; see Sir E. A. Bond's Introduction to Russia at close of 16th c. (Hakluyt Soc. 1856) p. xxi. seqq. But the word soon became a well-known term in connection with the trade of the East India Company, chartered in 1600.
