peer agreement (net): +1coadiuotor Explanation: You know that in Roman Empire the work was done by slaves (servus:the slave/servant). So "employee" in the contemporary meaning does'nt exist. I offer you several possibilities for helper: auxiliator=adiutor=minister and for collaborator: coadiutor=cooperator=administer -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs 28 mins (2004-07-21 11:37:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry, it should read coadiutor!! |
