Colleagues?

The prefix "co" implies a connection, a partnership. For instance, a single person operates. And two people co-operate.

I work with a colleague. But if I work alone... Then I am a league? If I have a collision then its with another car. If I put it in a ditch... Shouldn't that be a lision???

Honest officer. Its a lision.

As any co-p will tell you, ignorance of your native language is no excuse for anything.
