connascence

A few of these terms Notusbutthem (talk) 12:25, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

I can find no shortage of uses, but I was only able to add one quote to the entry. It's difficult to know what the remaining uses actually mean:

• [1] [2] perhaps "kinship, common parentage"? There is no indication of an "act" or of "growing" so I hesitate to put these under "The act of growing together".
• [3] "noble birth"? "fact of having been born into a particular family"? Unlike the two uses above, this doesn't imply ancestry in common with another.
• [4] [5] a nonce use relating to the anatomy of dogs (the second use all but quotes the first)
• [6] error for coincidence?
• [7] [8] are the clearest evidence I can find for the "growing together" sense, but I could use a second opinion
• [9] uses "in connascence with" (a nonce phrase meaning "in connection with")
• [10] is glossed in the text as "growth in conjunction with something else"
• [11] [12] [13] [14] no idea

I'm going to leave this here in the hope that someone smarter than me can make sense of it! This, that and the other (talk) 09:04, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

cited. Thank you, @This, that and the other for digging up the quotes. I was able to do something with many of them. Kiwima (talk) 23:43, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
