A visitor is someone who goes to see a place or person for a short time, not as a permanent resident.
From Old French “visitour,” from Latin “visitator,” meaning “one who visits or inspects,” from “visitare,” meaning “to go to see.” It originally included official inspectors as well as social guests.
A visitor changes a place just by being there—stores, museums, and even websites measure how many visitors they get. The same word covers both a tourist in a city and a guest in your living room.
