The OED claims that camaraderie and comradery have different pronunciations, and that comradery is a separate (rare) word, rather than an alternate spelling of camaraderie. I don't necessarily think they're right, but I figured I should mention it. Dfeuer 23:41, 21 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They don't look as though they'd sound the same (in British English, anyway). I hadn't heard of (deprecated template usage) comradery until just now, though. Chambers doesn't have it, either, but the first syllables of comrade and camaraderie are not the same in Chambers. Equinox 23:44, 21 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
