magnate · a very rich person, a moneybag · high-ranking nobleman
çekim: çoğul Magnaten · tamlayan Magnaten
eş: Tycoon
köken: Borrowed from Late Latin magnātus, derived from magnus (“great”). The historic senses are influenced by Polish magnat, Hungarian mágnás, both from the same Latin word.
köken: Inherited from Byzantine Greek βασιλιάς < βασιλέας (basiléas) with synizesis [ʎa] to avoid hiatus. From Ancient Greek βασιλεύς (basileús, “king, leader, prince, emperor”), from Proto-Hellenic *gʷatiléus; the word, attested in some form since Mycenaean times, is of uncertain ultimate etymology; possibly of Anatolian origin. Also see βασίλισσα (basílissa, “queen”).
