Family in Spanish or Portuguese; also used in English in some contexts to refer to close-knit family groups or communities.
From Latin 'familia' meaning 'family,' originally referring to household servants, then expanding to mean all household members. Spanish and Portuguese kept the original Latin form.
The word familia in Latin originally meant your household servants—family was defined by who lived with you, not by blood—which shows how much our idea of family has completely changed from a property concept to an emotional bond.
