今回取り上げるのは、entrepreneur /ὰːntrəprənˈɚː,/ です。以下で意味等を確認していきます。
LDOCEには、“someone who starts a new business or arranges business deals in order to make money, often in a way that involves financial risks”とあり、『ウィズダム英和辞典』には「起業家、興行主」と載っていました。続いてODEで語源を調べると、“early 19th cent. (denoting the director of a musical institution): from French, from entreprendre ‘undertake’ (see ENTERPRISE).”と定義されており、フランス語からきた単語だと分かりました。(Otoyo)
