1. 1

    A scribe was, in the past, a person whose job was to copy documents, letters, and books by hand, before printing existed — very important in ancient and medieval times, since most people could not read or write. Today the word is mostly used in history, religion (Bible 'scribes'), or half-jokingly for someone who notes for a group, like taking meeting minutes.
