Sodales

[maria mcgowan]

Hi,
I have recently been told that "Sodales" may mean companion or friend in Latin (maybe even Spanish). Can anyone help?
Many thanks,
Maria

Hi maria!
sodalis, is (m) [latin] (emphasis "a") = companion, friend, fellow, ...
As far as I know ... neither "sodales" nor "sodalis" does exist in spanish.

Buenas noches a todos:
Encontré sodales en el diccionario Larousse (castellano):
Nombre masculino plural-Voz latina que significa compañeros.
Rel.rom. Sodales augustales, sacerdotes de origen patricio, que cuidaban del culto de Augusto divinizado, en Roma.
(Cofradías semejantes fueron creadas después: sodales flaviales, adrianales, antoniniales).
O sea, cofrades es un sinónimo, supongo.

That exists in Spanish and means (always in plural) companions, friends,etc.).
