Is there an Esperanto word equivalent to "heckler"?

Prifajfulo?

"prifajfi" usually means something like "to blow off", so a "prifajfulo" would be the one who didn't bother attending in the first place!

Hecklers usually publicly and loudly complain at someone. Maybe a "plendaĉulo"?

I'm sure someone else can think of a better word though, this is just a stab at it, having given it only a minute of thought.

What about mokfajfulo?

UUano (Montri la profilon) 2011-septembro-27 22:21:37

Or mokadulo?

mokadulo might work

Mokfajfulo implies that this person is actually whistling. The two choices with "fajfi" are (a) literally, to whistle, and (b) to blow something off, to not care.

I think mokadulo would probably mean something like 'prankster' instead.

It's not exactly mocking, it's inconveniently and annoyingly interrupting someone. A very specific word to be translated without a significant loss of meaning.

From Peter Benson's En/Eo dictionary:

heckle, interkrii [int]; heckle, ~anto

But as heckle means to harass, perhaps:

cxagrenanto or gxenanto

Tricky one this.

I suppose the core meaning of 'Heckle' is to obstruct the flow of.

But it is used very specifically in English for calling out critical remarks to someone (politician/comedian) addressing a group.

Interrompi is a broader idea, as is obstrukci.

I think I like the suffix -ulo over -anto to describe a heckler.

Perhaps 'How do you deal with hecklers' could be rendered as 'Kiel oni traktu (reagu al) interrompuloj'.

Interrompulo sounds close enough, I think.
