ˌLone ˈRanger, the
a character in the US television programme The Lone Ranger, which was popular especially in the 1950s. He is a cowboy who wears a mask around his eyes, and rides a horse called Silver. He helps people and prevents crimes with his Native American friend Tonto. At the end of the programme, someone often says, ‘Who was that masked man?’ Tonto calls the Lone Ranger ‘Kemo sabe’, and the Lone Ranger always says to his horse, ‘Hi ho Silver’ when he rides off quickly.
