  1. 1保皇派、君主制支持者

    A royalist is someone who supports their country’s king or queen, or who believes a country should be ruled by kings and queens. The word can name the person, and it can also describe their views: a royalist family, a royalist newspaper. You meet it most in history and , not in everyday chat at the shop. In the English Civil War, royalists backed the king; the other side wanted parliament to hold more power. France and other countries have had royalists too, especially when people argued about whether to keep the crown. It is a serious, slightly formal label. It is not the same as loyalist, though the two sound close: a loyalist is loyal to a government or a union, and in Northern Ireland that word carries a heavy meaning of its own.
