Request for verification for German Rechtler - and also see e.g. Strafrechtler.

  • Words like Forstrechtler, Holzrechtler, Frauenrechtler, Staatsrechtler, Verwaltungsrechtler do exist, but these could be analysed as ([word] + [maybe some interfix known as Fugenelement] + Recht) + -ler, e.g. Staatsrechtler = (Staat + -s- + Recht) + -ler.
  • Rechtler as a proper noun can be found. It can also be found as a common noun, but this seems to be a short form of Holzrechtler or similar words, which refer to a person having a certain right. Both do not mean jurist, and thus, even if Rechtler exists, it could be that Staatsrechtler has to be analysed only as (Staat + -s- + Recht) + -ler and not as Staat + -s- + (Recht + -ler).
  • Even if Rechtler as jurist could be attested, it's most likely rare, uncommon, and thus it would rather be Staatsrechtler = (Staat + -s- + Recht) + -ler than Staatsrechtler = Staat + -s- + (Recht + -ler). -80.133.97.211 17:22, 10 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
According to German wiktionary de:Rechtler and wikipedia w:de:Holzrechtler, this word has a specific sense, namely someone who has a customary right to provide themself with firewood from municipality-owned forests. It occurs equally often as "Rechtler" and "Holzrechtler". I'm adapting the entry and remove the request, because it's definitely citable. Kolmiel (talk) 18:33, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
