The French form of comrade, meaning a friend, companion, or fellow member of an organization or cause.
French adaptation of Spanish 'camarada,' ultimately from Latin 'camera.' French adopted the term during the medieval period and it became especially popular during social and political movements.
French revolutionaries popularized this word as a way to address everyone equally—instead of using titles like 'monsieur,' they called each other 'camarades' to show they were all equals fighting for the same cause!
