In a way that matches, relates to, or is in agreement with something else. It indicates that one thing changes or responds in relation to another.
From Latin 'correspondere' meaning 'to answer together' or 'to be in harmony with,' formed from 'cor-' (together) and 'respondere' (to respond). The word emphasizes mutual relationship or response.
Think of this word as describing a dance between two variables - when one partner moves, the other moves correspondingly, maintaining their relationship even as both change positions!
