estudiats

Estudiats is not a recognized standard term in Catalan or most closely related languages. In common usage, it appears as a misspelling or OCR error for the Catalan word estudiants, which means students. The correct Catalan plural for a student is estudiant (singular) and estudiants (plural). The root estud- or estudi- comes from the Latin studium, with the suffix -ant forming the noun for a person who studies.

In practice, estudiants would refer to people enrolled in education at any level, from primary schools to universities, and it is a term you would encounter in educational contexts, campus life, or academic discourse. It is widely used in Catalan-speaking regions, including Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, Valencia, and Andorra. In related languages, the equivalents are estudiantes in Spanish and étudiants in French, reflecting common Latin roots and cognate development.

If you encounter the form estudiats, it is typically a typographical error or a nonstandard variation. Standard dictionaries and style guides for Catalan recognize estudiants as the correct plural. Some historical texts or non-Catalan sources might occasionally show divergent spellings, but they are not regarded as standard.

Related terms include estudiant, the singular form meaning a student; and broader concepts such as student life, student organizations, and educational institutions. The word illustrates how Romance-language vocabularies converge on the idea of studying and learners through closely related roots.
