Amateur
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Cite This Source

Most commonly an amateur is understood to be someone who does something without pay or formal training. Conversely, a professional is someone who has received training in a particular area and who also makes a living from it. The word comes from French, and can be translated as "lover of", reflecting the amateur's motivation to work as a result of a love or passion for a particular activity.
As with any construct, amateurism can be seen in both a negative and positive light. Since amateurs often do not have training, amateur work can sometimes be seen as sub-par. For example, amateur athletes in sports such as basketball or football are not regarded as having the same level of ability as professional athletes.

Alternatively, the lack of financial recompense can also be seen as a sign of commitment to an activity. For instance, until the 1970s most Olympic events required that the athletes be amateurs. Receiving payment to participate in an event disqualified an athlete from that event, as in the case of Jim Thorpe. This rule remains in place for boxing and football events.

Amateurs make valuable contributions in the fields of computer programming through the open source movement. Amateur dramatics is the performance of either plays or musical theater, often to high standards but lacking the budgets of the professional West End or Broadway performances. Astronomy and ornithology have also benefited from the activity of amateurs.

Answer 2

Amateur from the Latin Amo - love.
If you are an amateur you are doing something for love. I.e. amature tennis player. As opposed to professional - which means for money.

Armature from the Latin armus = shoulder (arm) Also armatura = armor. An armature is a structure that supports or protects something. Your arm is an armature.

Most common usage is the armature of an electric motor, which is part of the rotating structure that supports the coils of wire, but it can be any support structure that sticks out from the main body of something with the general but not absolute sense of mobility.

Answer 3

Armature has a number of definitions - It generally refers to an underlying 'bone' structure, such as a wire mesh that a sculpture would be built around. It is also used in robotics as an armlike device, usually with flexible joints that allow the tool on the end to be easily manipulated.

It is also the name of one of the components of an electric motor.

Amature is most likely a mis-spelling of amateur.

Answer 4

An armature is the main moving part in an electrical device or machine. An amateur is one who engages in an activity or pastime as a hobby and not for gainful employment. An amateur is also someone who lacks experience.
