The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.

Latin. Rfv-sense: "slaughterhouse". I don't see it in the references, and I'm a little surprised that this sense would be masculine rather than feminine or neuter.--Urszag (talk) 22:12, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

The FEW provides only the definitions 'zum (fleisch)markt gehörig' and 'fleischer'.
I don't see any sense like 'slaughterhouse' or 'meat-market' among the descendants either. That would rather be macellum and its descendants.
@Word dewd544, could you elaborate on why you added that sense to macellarius, if you recall? Nicodene (talk) 22:54, 5 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
