Etymology: "Changers" is the plural of "changer," a noun formed from the verb "change" and the agent suffix "-er," which marks someone or something that performs an action. Its earliest English form was the Middle English "chaungere" or "chaungeour," used for a moneychanger, the person who exchanged one coin for another. The modern sense of an apparatus that alters conditions or characteristics grew out of that same basic idea: something that turns one state into another, applied to machinery and devices rather than to people at a counter.
