hall where the members of a monastery or friary met for meals or refreshment. The word is by origin the same as " See also:refectory." The older forms, such as freitur, fraytor and the like, show the word to be an See also:adaptation of the O.Fr. fraitour, a shortened See also:form of refraitour, from the Med. See also:Lat. refectorium. The word has been confused with frater, a See also:brother or See also:friar, and hence sometimes confined in meaning to the dining-hall of a friary, while " refectory " is used of a monastery.
