Aryanizer/Aryaniser Explanation: This is obviously not a standard term, but Ariseur is a word specific to the NS era. I think it's important to have the "Aryan" aspect in there. Put the word in quotes and I'm sure it'd be perfectly clear enough for readers. "Victims often had to reimburse the "Aryanizer" for the latter's purchase price" http://www.ustreas.gov/press/releases/ls1112.htm |
