• Synonyms:
• Bro: Broseph is derived from the words “Bro” and "Joseph" (the latter having no real significance in it’s overall meaning, as it is not restricted to use only with people named Joseph.) For this reason, both words are fairly synonymous, though “broseph” is to be considered something akin to “The next level” over “Bro”, in that broseph is a more endearing and well known friend.
  
• Buddy: While they share general meaning, Buddy is something like the first level of knowing someone, whereas broseph is the final goal, so to speak. They both mean friend, but broseph is a friend much more loved and known.
