cohérente
Cohérente is a term derived from the Latin word "cohaerens," which means "sticking together." In various contexts, it is used to describe something that is consistent, logical, or unified. In philosophy, a coherentist theory of knowledge or justification holds that knowledge or justification consists in the coherence of beliefs or reasons with each other. In logic, a coherent argument is one where the premises logically support the conclusion. In mathematics, a coherent structure is one that satisfies a set of axioms or rules. In linguistics, coherence refers to the logical consistency and relevance of ideas within a text or discourse. In physics, coherence refers to the correlation or consistency of the phase, frequency, or amplitude of waves. In everyday language, something that is cohérente is reliable, sensible, or easy to understand. For example, a cohérente explanation is one that makes sense and fits well with other known facts. The opposite of cohérente is incohérent, which describes something that is inconsistent, illogical, or disjointed.
