A wonderful adjective that means 'itinterant' or 'someone who wanders'.
Taken into 16 Century Latin as 'peripateticus' it arises from the Greek 'peripatetikos'. While 'itinerant' may, in some contexts, be taken to imply a person without a permanent abode, the word has an interesting history.
Within the British context, 'itinerant' can apply to a teacher who is employed by 2 educational institutions and thus travels from one to the other in the course of their work.
Notice the audio impact of the word with the short, sharp [p] and the crisp, clear [t] juxtaposed with a series of short, single vowel sounds. Worth practising and integrating in your language.
If this is relevant to your bid for clarity, revise the short single vowel sounds here.
