peer agreement (net): +1(Royal) Court Explanation: I've found two references mentioning that Soberanas = Rainhas + Princesas: http://saojoaquimonline.com.br/2016/01/20/aberta-as-inscrico... http://portal.revistavisao.com.br/post/23447/abertas-inscric... At Proms and Homecoming events (the closest I got to "parties"), the queen and princess are members of "court" or "royal court". Ex.: http://hhs.pasco.k12.fl.us/prom-court-nominations/ "Prom Court Nominations" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homecoming "The Homecoming Court is a representative group of students that, in a coeducational institution, consists of a King and Queen, and possibly Prince(s) and Princess(es)." I hope this is somehow helpful! |
