   snob

   /snɒb/

   noun

   • 1. a person with an exaggerated respect for high social position or wealth who seeks to associate with social superiors and looks down on those regarded as socially inferior: "her mother was a snob and wanted a lawyer as a son-in-law"
   • ▪ a person who believes that their tastes in a particular area are superior to those of other people: "a musical snob"

   Word Origin late 18th century (originally dialect in the sense ‘cobbler’): of unknown origin; early senses conveyed a notion of ‘lower status or rank’, later denoting a person seeking to imitate those of superior social standing or wealth. Folk etymology connects the word with Latin sine nobilitate ‘without nobility’ but the first recorded sense has no connection with this.
