Where it comes from
Inherited from Middle English credo, from Old French credo, from Latin crēdō (“to believe”); doublet of creed.
noun credos · credoes
- A statement of a belief or a summary statement of a whole belief system; also (metonymically) the belief or belief system itself. “You’re either with me or you’re against me” became Dany’s credo, and those against her were an ever-changing multitude to be determined solely by her whims.
- The liturgical creed (usually the Nicene Creed), or a musical arrangement of it for use in church services. Credo III is so beautiful!
