Corollarial

/ˌkɔrəˈlɛriəl/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or of the nature of a corollary; being a natural consequence or inference from something else.

Etymology

From corollary (something that follows naturally) plus -ial (relating to), creating an adjective form to describe consequences or inferences that naturally follow from a premise.

Kelly Says

In mathematics and logic, corollary has a precise meaning—a truth that immediately follows from another truth without needing separate proof—and corollarial captures how some conclusions are practically automatic.
