glosador
ɡloˈsaðoɾ
ES
A person who writes or compiles glosses or word definitions for a glossary or dictionary
El glosador elaboró definiciones claras para cada término técnico del libro.
The glosador wrote clear definitions for each technical term in the book.
Etymology
Derived from Spanish 'glosa' (gloss, explanation) plus the suffix '-dor' indicating a person who performs an action. It entered Spanish in the 18th century from Old French 'glose'.
Memory Aid
Remember that 'glos-' matches 'gloss' (a word explanation), and '-dor' indicates the person who does the work, so a glosador is a person who writes glosses.
