Word of the week: Inamorata

Inamorata (Noun)
[in-amuh'rahtuh]

“It is a fancy way of saying ‘a woman with whom you are in love' or ‘the woman you love'. So you might say: ‘His inamorata is Maria, a 30-year-old school teacher from Brisbane'. It's the feminine of ‘inamorato', which, unsurprisingly, is a person's male lover.”
