primos

Male relatives, Spanish

Primos is the Spanish word for male cousins, borrowed into English especially in Latino communities and increasingly in broader slang use.

It carries warmth and familiarity, often applied not just to actual relatives but to close friends who feel like family.

I'm heading out with my primos this weekend.

The singular primo can also mean something excellent or first-rate, from the Italian and Spanish word for "first."
