A combatant is someone who fights in a war — a soldier or other person taking part in the fighting, not a doctor, a reporter, or a family hiding indoors. In careful news, and in the law of war, that contrast matters: combatants are the ones in the fight; civilians are not. The word sounds formal. You will see it in newspapers and legal talk more than in chat. It is usually a noun (a combatant); it can also describe forces (combatant troops). It does not mean “a person who likes to argue.” That job belongs to .
