Etymology 2[edit]

In sense 1, from lustra (“brothel, place of debauchery”) +‎ -ō (noun-forming suffix) (compare lustror (“to frequent brothels”)).[1] Sense 2 is possibly a reinterpretation based on the alternative sense of lustra (“wilds, woods, forest”) or influenced by the etymologically unrelated verb lūstrō (“wander over, traverse, roam”) (see above).

Pronunciation[edit]

Noun[edit]

lustrō m (genitive lustrōnis); third declension (uncommon)

  1. a frequenter of brothels/places of ill repute[1][2]
  2. a vagabond, wanderer, roamer[5]
    • c. 1150 – 1180, Thesaurus novus Latinitatis 313, (first published by Angelo Mai in Auctores Classici Vol. 8; authorship now attributed to Osbernus of Gloucester):[3]
      hic lustro, nis ·i· ille qui vagus est et nihil agit nisi fora lustrat, unde Naevius de quodam: vagus, inquit, est et lustro
    • c. 1150 – 1180, Osbern of Gloucester, Derivationes 193:[6][7]
      Errabundus, erratilis, vagus, lustrones, qui vagi sunt et instabiles
