Is this actually in use in English? I tried looking for "the emptor is", "the emptor should", "emptors are", but could not find anything compelling. PUC11:56, 2 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Some uses: [1], [2], [3].  --Lambiam 15:01, 2 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
OED actually has 7 cites. Here are some more in the collocations "vendor and emptor" and "vendors and emptors": [4], [5], [6], [7], [8]. Here's one more: [9]. Upon a cursory look these, OED's cites, and Lambiam's cites are all independent. 蒼鳥 fawk. tell me if i did anything wrong. 01:25, 21 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
