Lover in Spanish (and Portuguese for that matter) is amante, I don't think Amador is a Spanish word (unless it's slang maybe).

Amador is really a Spanish word (just as amante is), it means "that loves" but it doesn't connote a sexual thing. Amante could be a synonim of amador ("that loves") or a sexual/romantic lover.

Okay, thanks for telling me. Could you possibly give amador in a sentence to show me how it's used?
