Joined or united in the same physical form or body; existing together in embodied form.
From co- (Latin: together) + embodied (from embody, meaning to give physical form). The prefix co- combined with the past tense of embody, creating a word for shared embodiment that emerged in philosophical discourse.
This word appears frequently in phenomenology and philosophy of mind—it describes how two minds or consciousnesses might share a single body, a concept that fascinates neuroscientists studying split-brain patients and conjoined twins.
