Coparenary

/koʊˈpɛrəneri/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or involving a covenant or agreement made jointly by two or more parties.

Etymology

From co- + parenary (from Latin parenarius, relating to a covenant or agreement). The prefix co- emphasizes the mutual or shared nature of the covenant.

Kelly Says

This word appears almost exclusively in historical legal documents and property deeds, and its rarity today reflects how modern law prefers clearer terms like 'joint agreement' over these Latinate constructions.
