Meaning & usage
beekeeper (male or of unspecified gender)
Where this word comes from
From German Low German Imker. Obviously related to Imme (“bee”). There are two theories concerning the details of the development: # From Middle Low German immenkar (“beehive”), which is a compound with Middle Low German kar (“basket”). The component -ker < -kar would then have been secondarily associated with the Low German suffix -ker for occupations (compare Böttcher). # Directly derived from Imme with the mentioned suffix. Cognate with Dutch imker. Either way, ultimately from Proto-West Germanic *imbjakaʀjō.
