Consentive

/kənˈsentɪv/ adjective

Definition

Having the quality or tendency to consent; inclined to agree or give permission.

Etymology

From Latin 'consentivus,' combining 'consentire' (to agree together) with the adjective-forming suffix '-ive,' which indicates tendency or capacity. This rare formation follows the pattern of English adjectives derived from Latin verbs.

Kelly Says

This is a beautifully rare word that philosophers use when discussing whether humans are naturally cooperative or need to be forced into agreement—it suggests we might have an innate 'consentive' nature.
