a. [ OF. tramontain, It. tramontano, L. transmontanus; trans across, beyond + mons, montis, mountain. ] Lying or being beyond the mountains; coming from the other side of the mountains; hence, foreign; barbarous. [ 1913 Webster ]
☞ The Italians sometimes use this epithet for ultramontane, and apply it to the countries north of the Alps, as France and Germany, and especially to their ecclesiastics, jurists, painters, etc.; and a north wind is called a tramontane wind. The French lawyers call certain Italian canonists tramontane, or ultramontane, doctors; considering them as favoring too much the court of Rome. See Ultramontane. [ 1913 Webster ]
