Existing together by nature; naturally connected or inherent to something from birth.
From Latin co- (together) + naturalis (natural), formed in the 17th century to describe things sharing the same natural essence or origin.
This word captures a philosophical idea central to medieval thinking: some things aren't just similar, they share the same fundamental nature—like how waves and ocean water are conatural rather than merely related.
