What are the latin words for love hope and faith?

Answer 1

The basic words are amor, spes and fidesrespectively.

In the phrase usually translated "faith, hope and love" from 1 Cor. 13:13, the Latin word for "love" is caritas, which corresponds to the word agape in the original Greek. Strong's Lexicon of Biblical Greek describes agape as "affection or benevolence," as opposed to eros, which is romantic or physical love. The King James Version of 1 Cor. 13 renders caritas as "charity," but this did not have the same meaning in 17th-century English that it has today.

The complete 1 Cor 13:13 in the Vulgate Bible (St. Jerome's 5th-century Latin translation) is:

Nunc autem manet fides spes caritas tria haec maior autem his est caritas.

("Yet now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.")

Answer 2

The Latin equivalent of the English word 'hope' is the following: spes. In ancient, classical Latin, the term means 'expectation'. It most commonly carries a promise of good things. But it also may carry an anticipation, fear, or foreboding of bad things. Another term, specula, is used in the specific sense of a 'gleam of hope'.
