''Papabile'' ((:paˈpaːbile), pl. ''papabili'') is an unofficial Italian term first coined by Vaticanologists and now used internationally in many languages to describe a Roman Catholic man, in practice always a cardinal, who is thought a likely or possible candidate to be elected pope. A literal English translation would be "pop(e)able" or "able to be pope".〔"Papa" + suffix "-abile". Compare "combinabile", combinable or able to be combined.〕 In Italy the term has become very common and people use it for other situations too. In some cases the cardinals will choose a ''papabile'' candidate. Among the ''papabili'' cardinals who have been elected pope are Eugenio Pacelli (Pius XII), Giovanni Battista Montini (Paul VI), and Joseph Ratzinger (Benedict XVI). However, at times the College of Cardinals elect a man who was not considered ''papabile'' by most Vatican watchers. In recent years those who were elected pope though not considered ''papabile'' include John XXIII, John Paul I, and John Paul II. There is a saying among Vaticanologists: "He who enters the conclave as pope, leaves it as a cardinal." The list of ''papabili'' changes as cardinals age. For instance, Carlo Maria Martini was thought to be ''papabile'' until he retired from his see upon reaching 75 years of age. In Italian, the word ''papabile'' is also used in non-Church contexts referring to short list candidates, i.e. those who, among the available candidates, are most likely to get elected or appointed to a specific position. ==''Papabili'' elected pope== * Francesco Saverio Castiglioni (elected as Pius VIII in 1829)〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pickle-publishing.com/papers/triple-crown-leo-xii.htm )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pickle-publishing.com/papers/triple-crown-pius-viii.htm )〕 * Gioachino Pecci (elected as Leo XIII in 1878)〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pickle-publishing.com/papers/triple-crown-concluding-chapter.htm )〕 * Giacomo della Chiesa (elected as Benedict XV in 1914) * Eugenio Pacelli (elected as Pius XII in 1939) * Giovanni Battista Montini (elected as Paul VI in 1963)〔(Conclave A.D. 1963 - Election of Pope Paul VI ).
