Friends, compadres (6)
I believe the answer is:
amigos
I believe this is a double definition.
'friends' is the first definition.
('friends' in Spanish)
'compadres' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for amigos that I've seen before include "chums" , "Friends (Span.)" , "Friends in Spain" , "Mexican pals" , "Friends (Spanish)" .)
