Nearness in place, time, or relationship; the state of being close or adjacent to something.
From Medieval Latin 'appropinquitas,' formed from Latin 'propinquus' (near) + '-ity,' a suffix forming abstract nouns. Related to 'propinquity' (nearness).
This word means nearly the same thing as 'propinquity' but sounds more official—it's like how we have 'help' and 'assistance,' or 'buy' and 'purchase,' where one is fancy.
