Etymology
The word 'cohere' originates from the Latin 'cohaerere', which means 'to stick together'. It is composed of the prefix 'co-' meaning 'together' and 'haerere' meaning 'to stick or to cling'. The term has evolved in the English language since the 17th century, commonly used in philosophical and scientific discussions to describe the property of consistency and unity. Initially, it was used to describe physical properties, but over time, its usage expanded to encompass abstract concepts of thoughts and ideas that connect or align with one another.
