A person or company that forwards goods, packages, or information; someone who sends something onward to its destination.
From 'forward' (verb) plus the agent suffix '-er' (from Old English '-ere'). The '-er' suffix creates nouns meaning 'one who does X', a fundamental word-building tool in English.
'Forwarder' is actually a real, modern word used in shipping and logistics—companies employ freight forwarders to move goods internationally—showing how medieval word-building patterns (prefix + verb + agent suffix) still create practical modern terminology!
