What is a 'first enemy' called?












5















We have "best friends" and "close friends", because you give first importance to them. Like that, what should I call an enemy who is first enemy? I.e. you want to hurt him most then the rest of your enemies. What should we call them?

As per Wikipedia, an archenemy, archfoe, archvillain, or nemesis is the principal enemy of someone or something. In vernacular English, archenemy and nemesis are the two from the four above that are actually used commonly.



There's no single English word to describe the single most important enemy in which case you need to combine two words:




  • Primary Adversary

  • Main Opponent

  • Sole Archenemy or Sole Nemesis


Note to the OP: While archenemy has no friendly connotation, nemesis can also be used to refer to friendly rivalry.

    Not a criticism but note that all of these, apart from the last, sound rather superhero-comic. I doubt you'd refer to an "archenemy" or "archfoe" of some historical king, for example.

    I would say to not use this, because "worst enemy" is ambiguous. Is your worst enemy the enemy that is worst for you, or worst at being an enemy.

    @TheGuywithTheHat It's not ambiguous at all. The person who is worst at being my enemy is my best friend and, if I wanted to talk about that person, I'd say "best friend". Therefore, it's reasonable to infer that, when anybody other than Amelia Bedelia says "worst enemy", they mean their archnemesis.

You are probably referring to an arch-enemy (archenemy):





  • a principal enemy




Examples of arch-enemy:





  • The two politicians were archenemies.


  • The country went to war with its archenemy.

I suppose you could use sworn enemy per CALD:




sworn enemy: Sworn enemies are people who will always hate each other.

You could read the e-book novel "First Enemy" by Si Dumas, found in Amazon Kindle. Si explains it very well in ordinary terms.

    You are probably referring to an arch-enemy (archenemy):





    • a principal enemy




    Examples of arch-enemy:





    • The two politicians were archenemies.


    • The country went to war with its archenemy.

    sworn enemy: Sworn enemies are people who will always hate each other.

    You could read the e-book novel "First Enemy" by Si Dumas, found in Amazon Kindle. Si explains it very well in ordinary terms.
