英文释义
名词 n.
-
A dealer in horses or other livestock.
— I think the Yorkshire story of the farmer who sold his old horse to a couper at a fair, then got very drunk on his good bargain, and bought him back at the end of the day with painted legs and filed teeth as a young horse, might have a kindred story among Daffodil-bulb buyers.
词源
From coup (“to exchange, barter”) + -er.
