I discovered another contronym today. I love the concept: words that mean the opposite of themselves. Fascinating. And it's suprising how many there are in English.

This one is in today's A Word a Day by Anu Garg.

copemate, also copesmate PRONUNCIATION:(KOP-mayt):
MEANING:noun:
1. An associate or friend.
2. An opponent or adversary.
