It was most often used to refer to men in a knight's or Lord's retinue who were well-equipped and well-trained (deriving from having men under arms—meaning to be trained in the use of arms). Terms knight and man-at-arms are often used interchangeably, but while all knights certainly were men-at-arms, not all men-at-arms were knights. ----------------------------------------- MICHAELIS: man-at-arms [mæn ət 'a:mz] n Hist soldado, homem de armas. chief [ti:f] n 1 chefe, comandante, dirigente, superior, pessoa principal, cabeça. 2 chefe de tribo, cacique. |
