I just received an invite to a meeting next week where Cadres are on the agenda. I am pretty sure we will be talking about definition 1. Number 2 would be more interesting.

#2, a.k.a. Crafters Cadre?
Does Cadre rhyme with Padre? I hate words that I don't know how to pronounce, like "toile".
You can hear the correct pronounciation here:

That just made my whole day! I'm going to be entertained for hours.
Also, I love that superduper is classified as "slang".
