A Britisher is a person from Britain. The word is simply British plus -er: “one who is British.” It was used a lot by Americans, especially in older writing and in wartime talk. British people themselves have often found it odd; they do not usually call themselves Britishers. Today it sounds dated, like a line from an old film. Though actually, it is not an insult by itself — it is just an outsider’s label that has gone stale. If you need a neutral word now, say British person, , or, in casual speech, Brit. Keep Britisher for when you are reading an old American book or newspaper and need to know who they meant.
英國人（較舊；多為美國人的叫法）
