Etymology of UNDERALDERMAN

The word "underalderman" is derived from the combination of two elements: "under" and "alderman".

The element "under" comes from the Old English word "under", meaning "beneath" or "below". It is used to indicate a lower rank, position, or authority.

The term "alderman" has its origins in the Old English word "ealdorman", which referred to a high-ranking officer or official in Anglo-Saxon England. The word is composed of "eald", meaning "old" or "elder", and "man", denoting a person.

Therefore, "underalderman" essentially means a person who holds a lesser or subordinate position to an alderman.
