Better spelled m'anamchara some want this to mean 'soulmate' because it literally mean 'soul-friend' however in Irish the meaning is 'spiritual adviser', 'confessor' or 'chaplain'.

The Scottish Gaelic version Anam-charaid means 'bosom friend' or 'soul-friend'. 'A man or woman who says the death-blessing over a dying person'.

If you want to say soulmate in Irish fíorghrá(true-love) is probably more accurate.

Correctly spelled 'anamchara' (literally 'soul-friend') it means 'spititual adviser,

confessor, chaplain'. That hasn't stopped some who want it to mean 'soul-mate'.
