fratiĉo

Esperanto

Etymology

From frato (“brother (reconstrued as ‘sibling’)”) +‎ -iĉo (“male”).

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /fraˈtit͡ʃo/
  • Hyphenation: fra‧ti‧ĉo
  • Rhymes: -it͡ʃo

Noun

fratiĉo (accusative singular fratiĉon, plural fratiĉoj, accusative plural fratiĉojn)

  1. (rare, neologism, nonstandard) brother
    Mi amas mian fratiĉon.
    I love my brother.

Usage notes

  • This form is often considered redundant, because frato already means “brother” even without the addition of the masculine ending -iĉo.
