Cimberとは 意味・読み方・使い方

語源

The gens stems from a nickname given by both Celtic (Gaulish) and Germanic people. The Gauls and Germanic tribes used the word Cimber to describe someone in either a negative light ("thief, robber") (attested by Plutarch) or positive one ("soldier, warrior"); in both senses connected to the ethnonym Cimbri.

Germanic dialectal forms included kemffer, kempher, kemper, kimber, and kamper.
