Definitions

  1. be inherent in something

Word origin

Borrowed from Latin inhaerēre (“stick in, stick to, inhere to”), from in (“in”) + haereō (“stick”); see hesitate. Compare adhere, cohere.

Used in a sentence

  • Sovereignty should inhere in the people and not the government, so governments forfeit sovereignty when they commit crimes against humanity.
  • The error inheres in thinking of lexical items as coherent units existing at a single level.
