To exist or be present together; to coexist or share inherent properties together.

From co- (together) plus inhere, from Latin inhaerere (to stick or adhere to). This philosophical term describes things that exist together as inherent parts.

Kelly Says

This is a philosophy word: when two properties cohere in the same substance—like color and shape coexisting in an apple—they cohere; when multiple things do it, they coinheres.
