I don't believe that such a word exists in English. I'm thinking that you might mean either the present tense third person singular of the verb "to adduce" (he/she adduces), or the adjective "audacious".

"To adduce" is a verb (that I had never heard of until searching through a dictionary just now!) that means to bring something forward in an argument as support or evidence. For example, "His arguments are always convincing because he adduces many scientific studies."

"Audacious" is an adjective that means bold or fearless. Example: "The local news reporter puts herself in danger all the time to get the best story. She's audacious!" The noun form of this word is "audacity", which is "audacia" in Spanish, and "aud?ciae" in Latin.

I hope at least part of this answer helps! smile

I think ghall meant what is the English equivalent of the Spanish word audaces :) so I think the second part of your answer is spot on je je :) - Kiwi-Girl, Oct 31, 2011
