Covillager

/koʊˈvɪlɪdʒər/ noun

Etymology

From co- (together/with) + villager (person from a village), from village (Old French vilage, from Latin villa). A rare compound showing co- usage.

Kelly Says

This word is archaic and almost never used today because villages themselves are rare in modern life—the concept of knowing all your covillagers became obsolete as society urbanized.
