单词 marbler
释义

marblern.

Brit. /ˈmɑːblə/, /ˈmɑːbl̩ə/, U.S. /ˈmɑrb(ə)lər/
Forms: Middle English marbyler, Middle English merbler, Middle English–1500s 1700s marbeler, Middle English– marbler, 1500s marbular, 1500s merbeler; Scottish pre-1700 merblour.
Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; perhaps modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: marble n., -er suffix1, marble v.
Etymology: < marble n. + -er suffix1, perhaps after Anglo-Norman marbrier person who works in marble (compare Middle French marbrier person who prepares marble (1311)). In sense 3 < marble v. + -er suffix1; compare French marbreur (1680 in this sense).Numerous examples of the word as a surname survive from the Middle English period, as Middle Eng. Dict. shows, the earliest being the following:1230 in Publ. Pipe Roll Soc. (1927) IV. 153 Reg. le Marbrer.It is uncertain whether any forms spelt with -r- can be confidently regarded as evidence for the word's adoption into English, but forms with -l- (which appears to be a characteristically English development: see etymology note s.v. marble n. and adj.) may be treated as such. It is also uncertain to which of senses 1 and 2 some examples should be assigned, but a marbler resident in London may be reasonably presumed to have been a carver, as in quot. 1307-8 at sense 1.
1. A person who carves or works in marble; a sculptor. Now historical.
