Etymology of IN FIDELS

The term "in fidels" is derived from Latin, specifically from the phrase "in fidēlis".

- "In" is a preposition meaning "in" or "inside".

- "Fidēlis" is the plural form of the adjective "fidēlis", meaning "faithful" or "loyal".

Combined, "in fidēlis" translates to "in faithful ones" or "among the faithful". It is often used to refer to non-believers or those who do not share the same religious faith. Over time, the term has evolved into "infidels" in English, commonly used to denote unbelievers or those outside a particular faith or religion.
