A person who makes cords, ropes, or cordage; or someone who arranges things in cords or rope-like patterns.
From cord plus the agent suffix -er meaning 'one who does.' This occupation-based noun reflects an ancient craft of twisted fiber production.
In medieval towns, corders had their own guild with strict standards for rope quality—they were crucial for everything from ship building to well construction, making them key infrastructure workers.
