語源

pantile +‎ -er. Hotten suggests a derivation from the slang pantile (“hat”), because of the distinctive sugar-loaf hats worn by Puritans, or the habit of Quakers and many Dissenters of not removing their hats in a place of worship; or else from pantile (“type of roof tile”) with which the meeting-houses of Dissenters were usually covered.

名詞

pantiler (複数形 pantilers)

1. (Britain, religion, slang, obsolete) A preaching Dissenter.
