"Kanzler" meaning in German

See Kanzler in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /ˈkan(t)sləʁ/, [ˈkant͡s.lɐ] Audio: De-Kanzler.ogg Forms: Kanzlers [genitive], Kanzler [genitive, with an article], Kanzlers [plural], Kanzler [plural]
Etymology: From Middle High German kanzelære, from Old High German canzilāri (ca. 900), borrowed from Late Latin cancellārius, derived from Latin cancellus. By surface analysis, Kanzel + -er, but semantically pertaining more closely to Kanzlei (itself derived from the former). Compare English chancellor. The use for a head of government developed in a monarchic context from that for a senior administrator. After WWI it was maintained in the newly created republics, particularly as the respective heads of state (Präsident) continued to have far-reaching competences. At least in Germany this is no longer the case, making the title somewhat abstract.

  "etymology_text": "From Middle High German kanzelære, from Old High German canzilāri (ca. 900), borrowed from Late Latin cancellārius, derived from Latin cancellus. By surface analysis, Kanzel + -er, but semantically pertaining more closely to Kanzlei (itself derived from the former). Compare English chancellor.\nThe use for a head of government developed in a monarchic context from that for a senior administrator. After WWI it was maintained in the newly created republics, particularly as the respective heads of state (Präsident) continued to have far-reaching competences. At least in Germany this is no longer the case, making the title somewhat abstract.",
