名詞

dier (plural diers)

1. One who dies.
   • 1985, Don DeLillo, White Noise:

     It's a way of controlling death. A way of gaining the ultimate upper hand. Be the killer for a change. Let someone else be the dier.

   • 2006, Shankar Mokashi Punekar, Awadheswari:

     Since other languages are structurally constrained to say who it was who died and since the original leaves the identity of the dier unexpressed, any translation in the target language is going to be incorrect.

使用する際の注意点

• Used in abstract and philosophical contexts, rather than in discussing a known individual who has died. Compare deceased.
