"Beamter" meaning in German

See Beamter in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /bəˈʔamtɐ/ (note: Germany, most areas), /bɛˈamtər/ (note: Switzerland, some speakers of southern Germany and Austria) Audio: De-Beamter.ogg
Etymology: 14th century substantivization of haplologized (shortened) participial adjective beampt (also 14th century), which became Beamter in Neuhochdeutsch. From Old High German and Middle High German precursors of Amt (“office”). Nowadays often superficially analyzed as a shortened form of the rare Beamteter, which sometimes incites pseudoeducated claims that a feminine form *Beamte could be created (from the equally rare feminine form Beamtete), but this sounds silly to German speakers due to the well established feminine form Beamtin, which naturally evolved from Beamter + -in since the word beam(p)t no longer existed.
