Ad`ver*sa*ry , n.; pl. Adversaries . [OE. adversarie, direct fr. the Latin, and adversaire, fr. OF. adversier, aversier, fr. L. adversarius (a.) turned toward, (n.) an adversary. See Adverse.] One who is turned against another or others with a design to oppose26 or resist them; a member of an opposing or hostile party; an opponent; an antagonist; an enemy; a foe.> '92 or Ae. A diphthong in the Latin language; used also by the Saxon writers. It answers to the Gr. . The Anglo-Saxon short '91 was generally replaced by a, the long by e or ee. In derivatives from Latin words with ae, it is mostly superseded by e. For most words found with this initial combination, the reader will therefore search under the letter E.
