Coendure

/koʊɛnˈdjʊr/ verb

Definition

To endure or last together; to suffer or persist through something jointly with another.

Etymology

From co- (together) + endure (from Latin durus, hard, tough). This verb combines the prefix for mutual action with endure to describe shared persistence through difficulty.

Kelly Says

Marriages, friendships, and team relationships coendure through hardship—the 'co-' really matters here because it emphasizes that both people have to stick it out together or the bond breaks.
