"Geimer" meaning in Luxembourgish

See Geimer in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ˈɡɑɪ̯mɐ]
Etymology: From Middle High German gingebere, from Latin gingiber. The Luxembourgish is probably based on a metathesed variant *gigembere (compare attested Old French gigimbre alongside gingembre, Middle Dutch gigeberre, modern Dutch gember). By regular loss of intervocalic -g-, this would then have developed through *gīmbere into the contemporary form.
