Coequalness

/koʊˈiːkwəlnəs/ noun

Definition

The quality or state of being coequal; equivalence in rank or standing.

Etymology

From coequal + -ness (Old English suffix forming abstract nouns), an alternative nominalization to coequality.

Kelly Says

While 'coequality' sounds more formal and Latin-derived, 'coequalness' has an older English feel—it's the kind of philosophical term a Renaissance thinker might use to describe the 'coequalness' of a husband and wife in marriage.
