名詞

Latiner (plural Latiners)

1. (historical) Synonym of interpreter.
   • 1689, John Selden, Table-Talk, page 64:

     Latimer is the Corruption of Latiner, it ſignifies he that interprets Latine, and though he interpreted French, Spaniſh, or Italian, he was call'd the King's Latiner, that is, the King's Interpreter.

   • 1725, The Voiage and Travaile of Sir John Maundeville, Kt..., page 58:

     ... alle weys fynden Men Latyneres to go with hem in the Contrees, and ferthere bezonde, in to tyme that Men conne the Langage.

   • 1925, William Craddock Bolland, A Manual of Year Book Studies, page 104:

     The Dictionary says that the meanings of the two forms are quite distinct and invariable; that Latiner is, to put it shortly, a Latin scholar, that Latimer is an interpreter, and that Latiner is never used in that sense. In the Hilary term of 34 Henry VI a case was heard to which a foreigner who could not speak our language was a party. He was allowed to engage the services of an interpreter, and that interpreter is plainly written down as a Latiner and not as a Latimer. That is an example of a certain emendation that would have been made in the Dictionary if the Year Books had been consulted.

2. (colloquial, obsolete) A person who speaks and reads Latin, particularly (historical) an early modern student or scholar.
   • 1853, Xavier Donald MacLeod, The Bloodstone, page 56:

     "But is he not a very good preacher?"
     "Au aye, beloike he be a goodish preacher, but no Latiner, measter, no Latiner."
