Also means
partner
Usage Note
Pareja means both the couple as a unit (una pareja feliz, a happy couple) and one's individual partner (mi pareja, my partner) — making it gender-neutral and relationship-neutral in a way that novio/a or esposo/a are not. It also means any matched pair (una pareja de calcetines, a pair of socks).
Examples
"Mi pareja y yo viajamos juntos cada verano."
Natural Translation
My partner and I travel together every summer.
