The term I use depends on what other dances I plan to be calling in the evening.
Sometimes it is neighbor, sometimes it is corner.

I don't think correctness needs to be considered. As long as the dancers understand
that they're going to do something with the person next to them who isn't their
partner, I'm happy, and either term conveys that.
Nowadays I think that I'm more likely to hear the word neighbor come out of my
mouth.

Does anyone have an opinion about the use of the term “neighbor” and the term “opposite”
in a Sicilian Circle?
“Neighbor” is more correct from a contra perspective, but “opposite" feels more
correct to me from a square dance perspective.
thanks,
