Latin[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Uncertain, but perhaps a corruption of *sūtribāiulus (“cobbler’s porter”) — originally denoting a cobbler’s assistant — from sūtor (“cobbler”) + bāiulus (“porter”); for the reduction of the combining stem of sūtor from sūtōr- to sūtr-, compare sūtrīnus and sūtrīx (regular in the latter).
Pronunciation[edit]
- (Classical) IPA(key): /suː.triˈbal.lus/, [s̠uːt̪rɪˈbälːʲʊs̠]
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /su.triˈbal.lus/, [sut̪riˈbälːus]
Noun[edit]
sūtriballus m (genitive sūtriballī); second declension
- (Late Latin) a mender of old shoes, a cobbler
