Definition
A fellow student or pupil; someone who studies or learns alongside another person.
Etymology
From Latin condiscipulus, combining con- (with) and discipulus (student, disciple). Originally meant 'a student with another,' evolved to mean 'fellow student.'
Kelly Says
Latin had condiscipulus, German has Mitschüler, French has condisciple—many European languages created words for 'classmate' by literally saying 'with-student,' showing education was universal enough to need specific vocabulary.
