Noun

IPA: /ˈniu̯ˌlɪx.tər/ Audio: Nl-nieuwlichter.ogg Forms: nieuwlichters [plural], nieuwlichtertje [diminutive, neuter]
Etymology: From nieuw licht + -er. Often said to be coined in reference to the Zwijndrechtse Nieuwlichters, an early restorationist Christian movement, but the term predates the movement by about 25 years. Steven Blankaart and A. de Heid used the terms nieuwlicht and nieuwlichtend (in the obsolete spellings nieuwligt and nieuwligtend) in the titles of some seventeenth-century medical publications to denote innovation, but this usage does not seem to have caught on at the time.
